Dominik,
Thank you for your explanation.
Does anobody know a program of this type (I mean: based on index cards concept ) that allows for completely free design of cards? During years I have developed my own system of making notes using cards and would be happy to reproduce it using computer instead of ajusting myself to actually fixed templates created by a developer.
Best regards,
Wojciech

Wojciech,
I am not sure whether this program fits your requirements but it is worth to have a look at:

Dominik,
Thanks for the link. The problem with AZZ Cardfile is that while there are no predefined fields, there is also no possibility to create custom fields. However, I’ve installed the trial and found some interesting news in comparison to the earlier version (I saw this program a couple of years ago). First of all, you can now insert tables from Word and spreadsheets from Excel, embed various objects, you can also use hyperlinks. This does provide some ways for organizing and structuring information.
Best regards,
Wojciech

Wojciech,
Have you look into using AskSam for this purpose? I would think it could handle it just fine.

AskSam? I’ve never thought about AskSam in this context. Thanks a lot! I will check it as soon as I can and let you know how it works as “free cart design” index card software.
