Hi Marco
May be worth having a look at Endnote ~ they have both a PC based and a Web based version .

Subject: reference collection database
Dear List Members,
I am in the process of setting up a database for the archaeobotanical reference collection of our Laboratory in Barcelona and I am trying to understand the best way to sort it out. Any of you/your labs has made a database with software such as Filemaker Pro? Is there anything on line that can be visited to see a working database?
Because we deal with many different botanical remains (wood, leaves, phytoliths, starch, etc.) I am thinking of a form that under the botanical name of the species can group what parts we have in the reference collection.
I'd welcome any suggestion you might have, especially of databases already up and working with which compare our ideas.
Many thanks -- best wishes,
Marco
