Hey Serdar: Have you ever heard of a piece of Software called 1st Place... You can create a simulation of that... It is used for Cooperative Education Services... We have it in place here at Memorial University (Canada)... It gives coordinators of various cooperative education programmes a decent way of keeping track of Employers for Interns participating in their programmes, Students enrolled as interns, schedules for job interviews... e.t.c A similar type of software is Place Pro...
Here is what happens: There is a user friendly front end... When an Employer enlists to the program (i.e. when they want to contact students from a particular field they contact our office and are entered into the DataBase) All relevant info. is stored... Queries are in the form of forms... and are made against a couple of Databases in our Case Student.db (holding Students), Company.db (holding Company info), Schedule (I am not sure what table that one is held in)... Noticably they are all Paradox Tables... There are Lock Mechanisms that prevent Overwriting of a particular Row given two people are logged on at the same time... Such a project would depend on the ability to which your mind can conjure up pictures relating to such a project... Alot of features are taken into account... p/s: when engaging in such a project you ought to take into account security... You don't want every Tom, Dick and Harry to get at your Data (Hence the User Friendly Front End Should be straight Forward as well as Secure)... Good Luck in Your final decision... Spike...
