Clip-art Management...please help!

Hello Everyone...first off, I'm new to this board so I appologize if this message is perhaps in the wrong forum...but I am a Corel user so I thought I'd try to find answers here first.
I, like many of you have a substancial collection of clip-art ranging in file formats from CDR-EPS-AI...and have just recently installed another slave drive to copy all my clip-art images to rather than trying to manage them off each cd. I am trying to find a program or simply a 'way' to catalog this clip-art (there are many duplicates from disk to disk, I'd like to eliminate) and would like to use (or create) keywords etc to search my entire catalog...and wish to be able to view thumnails of them before importing them.
I've read up on a few like "ROMCAT" which seems great for CDR files w/keyword files that already exist...but does nothing for EPS or AI files. ThumbsPlus, with the GhostScript plug-in is 'supposed' to handle most AI and EPS files...but seems as though I get no thumnail images other than the Corel icon (since I have file association set to Corel). One of my clip-art disks uses "Portfolio" by extensis, to view thumnails...but it seems as though I have to use another program to 'create' thumnail files first, in order to view them...I've been searching the internet and downloading demo's for days...to no avail.
I would REALLY appreciate some input as to what any of you are using...it seems in this day and age of computers there should be a program able to do all this (I can't imagine I'm the only one wanting to do this rather than just printing of sample sheets...as handy as they can be)
Any advice on programs/viewers/managers, or your own catalog methods (folder names etc.) you think would be helpful would truly be appreciated.

Thanx so much in advance,
Mike Ball

Thank you Fred for your reply...I checked out some of the demo's and it looks interesting enough (I have used a limited version that came packaged with one of my clip-art disks for viewing just those files) problem is I couldn't find anything mentioning AI or EPS...it's kinda confusing because most of these programs seem to be aimed mostly at Photo-management and talk about JPG's and such but few show a list of supported file types, so unless I hear someone like yourself is/has used it for clip-art I'd never know to try it. I'll perhaps try the demo version and see how it works...but I'm still interested in others opinions as well. Thanks for the info.
Respectfully,
