I wrote one for my labs in HyperCard back in the 90's. HyperCard hasn't been supported for years and requires Mac OS 8 or 9 (or OS X running in Classic Mode), so that also means you can't use it on an Intel-based Mac or with Leopard. And I just tried it with Tiger and hung it in Classic Mode, so you'd ideally need to use this on really old surplus Mac. But if you want a copy, it was pretty slick. Just about most things you might want except bar coding. And you can bulk import data from a spreadsheet. It requires HyperCard 2.2. or higher, although it is available as a standalone application with the HyperCard engine built in. You can customize lots of things (and everything if you own a copy of HyperCard). If anyone is interested given the ancient requirements you can view the manual with screenshots here: http://www.ilpi.com/help/chemventory/chemventory_manual.pdf If that intrigues you, download the package containing both the compiled standalone version, HyperCard stack version (requires HyperCard 2.2 or higher) and docs here: http://www.ilpi.com/help/chemventory/ChemventoryApp.zip If anyone uses or tries this thing, I'd be curious to know. I'll bet a lot of folks have their own FileMaker or Excel setups they'll offer as well.
