In response to all of the messages on the organization of the physical documents of the entries on the Clooz database, keep it simple. I break out census by year, mostly because the format changes, then just a sequential number. I use Clooz to give me the person / family / location cross reference into my actual files -- I have entered enough information in Clooz, that I rarely go back to the primary document. The same for other documents -- I let Clooz organize, I just keep track of the next sequential number. This also works for photographs -- the information stored in Clooz, including the thumbnail, gives me a great index and then PHOTO99999 gets me to the right spot if I need the actual photo -- I usually use the electronic copy which has the address stored in Clooz. Use the product, it really works and saves the double organization time for more research!
