Event management/attendee list database help

[Camille]

Just starting out in access. I am trying to create a database for work that
shows:
1. Events (upcoming and past)
2. Attendees

I also do travel arrangements for some attendees - so something that allows
for attachments where I can see their arrangements as well.

I downloaded access 2003 template for attendees but it's a form and I don't
know how to attach it or relate it to another downloaded 2007 access template
for event management.

Hello Camille,

I would like to offer to put this database together for you. I provide help
with Access, Excel and Word applications for a small fee. If you would like
my help, contact me.

These newsgroups are provided by Microsoft for FREE peer to peer support.
There are many highly qualified individuals who gladly help for free. Stevie
is not one of them, but he is the only one who just does not get the idea of
"FREE" support. He offers questionable results at unreasonable prices. If he
was any good, the "thousands" of people he claims to have helped would be
flooding him with work, but there appears to be a continuous drought and he
needs to constantly grovel for work.

A few gems gleaned from the Word New User newsgroup over the Christmas
holidays to show Stevie's "expertise" in Word.

Word 2007 ..........
In older versions of Word you could highlght some text then go to Format -
Change Case and change the case of the hoghloghted text. Is this still
available in Word 2007? Where?
Thanks! Steve

I am designing a series of paystubs for a client. I start in landscape and
draw a table then add columns and rows to setup labels and their
corresponding value. This all works fine. After a landscape version is
completed, I next need to design a portrait version. Rather than strating
from scratch, I'd like to be able to cut and paste from the landscape
version and design the portrait version.

How do you protect the document for filling in forms?

the OP an Access database)

Yes, you are right but a database is the correct tool to use not a
spreadsheet.

Not at all. If it's just a simple list then a spreadsheet is perfectly
adequate...

You really need to sit down with Access closed and determine all of the
specifications for your database. Figure out all of the "pieces" of
information you will want to track and then decide your table structures. If
you don't understand normalization, do a search on the web.

Once you have determined how your tables should be structured, use a great
naming convention to build your tables. Then you can create the forms,
queries, reports, etc for your application.

Hi Camille,

I found two templates for you which I think are or would be helpful for
you.

First is an 'event registration' template, you can find it here:

'SpreadsheetZONE - Free Excel Template Repository'
(http://www.spreadsheetzone.com/templateview.aspx?i=14)

Second is a 'travel expense report' template, which is located at:

'SpreadsheetZONE - Free Excel Template Repository'
(http://www.spreadsheetzone.com/templateview.aspx?i=41)

Both of them are free to download. So I think you should really give it
a try and look if they work for you.

This is an Access newsgroup, so I think it best to assume people are looking
for Access solutions.

and still ignoring the rules. Sounds like a great endorsement.
