Ah, and don't store that information on your PC alone.

Put a copy of the document with values in a location where it will be found, if needed. (the gun safe is probably a good place, I keep mine in a plastic folder on the inside of the door).

I've witnessed several occassions where the value of a collection was lost because the owner had stored all the data on his laptop, which was given to a relative after his passing, who promptly did a reformat and reinstall of the PC, so that all data was lost forever.

It's funny how a 200 dollar laptop can destroy a collection that is worth thousands.
