Default Making a searchable database

I work at a place where we have tubes that hold old engineering drawings.
Anytime we need to retrieve one of the old drawings, we have to search
through notebooks looking for particular part numbers in order to find the
drawing we are looking for.

I thought if I could make a list of all the drawing numbers and all the
tubes, it would be a lot easier to be able to type them in Excel and find the
tube number instead of having to flip through 3 huge binders.

The only problem is, I have NO IDEA how to do this! If anyone could help me
I would greatly appreciate it!!

Best wishes- Tricia LeAnn
