I know these exist but can;t find one for PC. Basically my dad needs a piece of software that can, either using a webcam or usb barcode scanner, can keep a record of ALL his LP records on his computer in a nice organised form. Found some for MAC but not PC. Anyone help with this>

Had a snoop round Barcodepedia, but it doesn't seem to have any way of tying user inputs to accounts, or organisation.

This program (Vista Only) will read a barcode from a webcam, and copies it direct to the clipboard. I'd then use it inconjunction with Excel (or a simple database software program such as NeoMem).

The scanner and database program don't have to be a single app, the only drawback with this setup in comparison is that you've just got an extra action to perform (Paste from clipboard) when filing an record. Either way, it'll be a somewhat laborious task no matter what you use.
