Ooooh me too me too. I've been meaning to create a database but I'm terrible with Excel so I've been dreading creating one.
Can anyone send me a copy of their template? Please? I'd be eternally grateful.

Yes it is fairly expensive. I can't remember the price now but it was too expensive for me at the time.
Having said that I've heard from everyone who has got it that it IS worth it. |

What would it be like if we started an online orchid database project? We would all catalog our own collection online and be able to cross reference it with others and see how other people grow the same orchids under diffrent conditions.

Bob, there have been a few old threads on this subject and one of them mentioned putting the date the plant spiked, just in case it doesn't flower for some reason, and number of spikes.
You may also want to separate colour into flower colour and lip colour to help differentiate between orchids with the same colour petals (if you have them of course). There is also how long the plant bloomed, to go under bloom history.
I'm currently creating an orchid database in Access for my lot.

do you do yours have the orchids arranged alphabetically? because then do you have to rearrange the list because you get a new one.

Mine are in alphabetical order. I'm planning to get orchidwhiz but not for the spreadsheet.
