Want inventory software
I'm moving towards starting my business as a real estate redeveloper. For my projects, I would like to tell my GC what types of things I'd like installed like a beautifully designed double vanity sink I found at Lowe's. I want to store this info in a program. I was going to use Excel, but I can't seem to enter a picture into a single cell, and I'd really need to see a picture of the things I'm deciding on without having to open a browser.
Is there any type of program out there that can handle this, like inventory software, or something geared towards contractors or materials management? I just want to add a picture, item name, price, SKU#, and a link or store location where it can be purchased. I need to be able to see the pictures of the items without hassle at first glance, though. Thanks!

You can do this in Excel. You need to set the properties of the picture to "Move but don't size with cells". In the version of Excel I have, use right-mouse-button -> Size & Properties -> properties tab and select Move but don't size with cells. Menus change from version to version, so it may not be the exact same sequence in your version.
So, paste in your picture where you want it, then set the property as above. Now the picture will stick with the cell where you pasted it.
