just add a comment to the comment field then when you print the labels identify that batch somehow (b1, b2, b3) etc
so the comment would read
b1 - new batch, purchased 12/01/11 darker colour
b2 - new batch, purchased 16/04/11 has streaks and is shocky
etc
so when you pick up a rod and it has
123456
blue
b2
you know what it is

I think if you truly want to keep track of batches there is only one (or maybe two) ways to do it - make each batch a new glass as has been suggested, or ( maybe lots of work for our noble Deb) add a batch field that is part of the key. This is a tough one to solve.
Deb, what seems to work best for you? All options can work, just each in a different way.
Hope I'm adding light, not heat!
Whatever you decide, we love your StashMaster!
