You say “Where Is It” can’t add columns. That’s what I said. You can use the columns provided, but can’t create your own columns. Having a description column is hardly a feature since even Windows Explorer allows comments. Tags are fine, but they don’t do what I’m looking for. I’m looking for software that allows me to organize files with customizable columns. “Where Is It” doesn’t do that. That was my only point. I’m not saying it’s a bad program or isn’t useful. It just doesn’t have customizable columns.

For example, I have a collection of articles in pdf format. I want a column to display the article’s author, the website where I found it, the date it was published, and a column to indicate whether I’ve read the article and taken notes, etc. It doesn’t sound like anything too complicated to me, but I’m having trouble finding a program that does it. Nothing you say indicates to me that “Where Is It” can do these things. One description column isn’t enough, and tags don’t work for what I’m trying to do.
