What software do you recommend to manage document and graphics files?
Ideally, the software would run on Windows and:
* allow to catalog graphic and document file names, path, descriptions, and
create customized fields
* view graphic files
* do a search by any field
* have a feature to create a "report" of files and their properties that
could be saved as text.
