For work I need to keep a catalgoue of all the tapes,cds, dvds etc they have, can anyone recommend a program?

I have little experience of spreadsheets etc so want to avoid excel, and open office solutions if I can. Basically just want a printable list that can be electronically searched. Willing to pay for decent program but preferably free. Any suggestions or anything I'm overlooking?Cheers!

Media Man is a great program, you can use it as a trial version or buy it. It's inexpensive, I use it for DVDs, computer games, and books that I own, and if you get a handheld USB scanner, you can just scan the barcode on the item and it will add it to your catalog. http://www.imediaman.com/
There are good archiving programs around. Have a look at Versiontracker.com to see if there is a trial version you can download.
If you just want minimum information, such as title, author, etc, the Excel or Neven Notepad should be fine. These are probably the easiest ones to use, unless you want to use Word. Notepad will be the cheapest because it comes as part of Windows.
When you start building up a list like this you will always find that you want to do more with it, like extract certain information so I suggest you start a database in Access.
