Equipment Library Database

Fritz

I need to create an Equipment Library Database, does anybody have a sample
database I could look at for some ideas.
An equipment library is the same as a book library but instead of books we
loan medical equipment.

Many thanks in advance.

I found this really incredible resource looking at this problem! Go to this
site

http://www.softwareforeducation.com/

and scroll down near the bottom of the page. You'll see a link titled MS
Access-Library Database

Create a folder just to hold this download

Download the file and unzip it in the new folder

The file will install an

1) Access Lending Library database
2) A Word document that actually takes you thru,
with text and screen grabs, how to develop the database
3) A number of graphics files for demo purposes

The above is why I said to make a folder just to hold the files, as there are
a number of them!

I've never seen anything, in texts or online, that explains the process this
completely!

Good Luck!

if you are building a new database; you should be using SQL Server

go and find a credible SQL Server developer / DBA

Does anyone know where I can get this file? It does not seem to be on the
site anymore.

Thanks,
