Exactly... and this is what I will be always promoting to people on how they can continue to keep up with their record keeping.

If everyone did as you suggested, there would be no need for 2257lookup. Necessity is the mother of all inventions, and given the real problem of poor record keeping, I saw the answer.

Some people have developed content management software that can help with 2257 compliance. These kinds of tools are great for keeping records straight, much like someone using Quicken, or Peachtree, etc for accounting.

I use a excel to balance my checkbook, where I could have used Quicken. Webmasters can use excel to keep up with 2257 compliance, or they can use other third party tools and services.. it's up to each business owner to figure out what works best for them.
