I used Access because I wrote the program over three years ago and knew
little to nothing about databases, plus Access offered an "easy" (I use
that term loosely) way to layout the data on the page. In order to
create a Ward Directory, we just print the three page opening spread to
a pdf, add the directory report, then the birthday list report and then
the first name index report. Kind of a hack, but it sure beat updating
all the info in multiple places in Publisher or similar program. I was
hoping to further automate the entire process in a website.
