Hello Brian
At the Beverley Soaring Society, we have a comprehensive Access program we commissioned about 14 years ago. Its had the odd refinement over the years and works well. Members flight and account information is also posted to our web site. Members can look at from many years ago up to recent data. We are in the process of implementing an Excel front end for direct input of flight information on the airfield. Currently, input to Access is done by our logkeeper using our written log sheets. The transfer of data from the daily Excel file to the Access system will still be done by our logkeeper. Excel is the most suitable as a front-end for use on the airfield. However, Access is much more suitable for storing the data and assigning costs to members accounts. The access system has been set up to satisfy our particular way of doing things. Let me know if you would like to look further at what we have.

The program runs OK, but the members accounts reports are very poorly setout and only available as a text file. We were going to write a new program based around Access or Excel, that would allow use to upload logs/accounts to our website. Before we over commit ourselves to this involved and frustrating task, has anyone out there already done this..? Regards Brian Gilby Boonah Club No virus found in this outgoing message.
