Database design for computer lab

C

Cam

Hello,

I need to create an Access database for a computer lab (30 computers).
It will be use to replace the manual students sign in/out each time they
use the lab computer. It will contain: L Name, F Name, Computer number,
Date, Sign in time, and Sign off time. I need to be able to save the
data.
I can think of two options and need recommendation which is the best for
this situation.
1) Create a database to put in one delicated computer so students can
sign on/off the database when they use the computer.
2) Create a database to be installed in a network on all 30 computers so
students can sign on/off at the computer station they are using.

* if option 2 is choosing, what programing code can I do to force
students to log on/off from the computer every time before they can
access the Windows screen (desktop).
Thanks for any help. GREATLY APPRECIATED
