Anyone got a simple database template for keeping change
control details of software changes to an application??
Make the application self-documenting. That is, have a standard format
change log in each sourcefile. Add a standard format entry to the changelog
whenever you make a change to a sourcefile. Then write some VBA to scan the
sourcefiles & display all changes, or all changes after a specified date, or
whatever. I use this approach, & it works quite well. It is conceptually
different to having a seperate db where you enter the change information. I
use the latter approach for storing bug information & enhancement ideas, but
not for storing change information.
