Thanks for all the advice, but its going to be too hard for me to get
results from this software. I will just leave my film cameras in the attic!

Yeah, I know -- takes at least 5 or 10 minutes.

You must have a very short attention span.

While it is not exactly what you want, but functionally it accomplishes
the same thing. Irfanview will append an image file with the IPTC
information. You can put information about the image in this file. I
don't routinely use it for my scanned images but have investigated the
possibility of using it.

The IPTC information is placed near the beginning of the file.

....it appears that Lightroom can add exif data...I just did a cursory
search and many related links popped-up...also:

Hey guys I think I have the answer "JPEG JAPERY 1.34". Just downloaded it
and is is very easy to use. However, it's a demo version and only does two
images at a time, so I shall have to pay about �19.00 for the full version.
If anyone comes up with anything like this, only free, then please post it
here! Thanks everyone.
