Thanks to all of you who responded with suggestions for bibliography manager software (over a dozen replies actually).
Tabulated here are the replies I received:
1. Endnote - 8 people
2. Microsoft Onenote - 2 people
3. Infoselect - 1
4. Latex - 1
5. Pro-cite - 1
6. Mediator - 1
7. RefWorks - 1
It appears that "EndNote" is the reference manager of choice for those who replied. I will check them all out (but I'll have to let each of you try the same). Thank you again for everyone's suggestions and input. I was glad I could share this back with everyone; maybe someone else had the same question I had. Most everyone replied by saying they used this or that in their dissertation days, which is ironic, since that is where I hope to headed soon.
Have a happy weekend!
