Wow, poochella, you must have a lot! How many varieties?

Poochella, a spread sheet should be able to allow you to SORT them alphabetically. I believe Microsoft Office has a spreadsheet function, or it not Microsoft Excel. That's what I would use anyway, expecially if you have it already under Excel. You may need some pointers with it though, if you are not familiar with spreadsheets.

Poochella, Do you have Microsoft Access in your office program? If you do it's the only way to go. If you do, which one do you have ( office 97 or 2000)? You can start with a blank database in the wizard. With this program, you can list your dahlias alphabetically,embed photos of each,and add any information about each that you want. I do have one I built, database on flowers,one on iris, and plan on building one on dahlias so if you have the program, email me and I will send it to you and all you will have to do is convert it to you liking. (LOL,My DH is a computer geek! )

Prestonwright: I don't know how many I have- a lot it seems. In excess of 150 varieties by a quick unorganized accounting. Which is why I want to organize them. Instead of organizing them I should be out digging room for them!

Jroot, I am working on Excel spread sheet right now and hope it will work : )

Willow, no Access here, that comes with the Office Professional edition I guess, we have Standard Office 2003.

I will give it a whirl and see how this goes.
Thanks to all.

I got it! I got it! A way to alphabetize and number. Am changing my name to Super Excel Geek...LOL

Glad you figured it out-I was about to send you my Excel list again as an example. When do you want your tubers and how many did you finally decide on? It's obviously too wet and cold to plant yet.
