Hi
I have said yes to constructing a survey questionnaire type database in access 2007
It is for a mining company to asess the impact the mine is having on the community and whether they can create jobs for the locals. I have 28000 questionaires going to print as we speak. once these have been filled in they need to be captured.

I thought this was something easy to do but since I have changed my mind on that. I d/l the Access 2007 Bible and started learning what I can but its 1413 pages and I dont have enough time. I sorta know a bit so far. What I need help with is the basic structure of the database...what tables forms ect any ideas as to how you would go about designing such a database?

thanks

but I don't think I would have any problem with this, my question therefore is this,
Do you get your self a job as an airline pilot and sit in the cockpit and say "now then...how do I fly this thing?"

Don't mind helping someone out..but I don't have time to architect a database schema for you..even if it is a small one. Read the chapter on data modelling and see how you get on. If you have more specific questions, then come back and ask them. Without knowing your data to be captured and how it needs to be analysed, there's no way can help you with this, and getting all that info from you would just be too time consuming.

Next time you should think about the job before you accept it, and if you don't know the technology, do not accept it.

Don't mean to be mean, just being realistic.

You and I live in the same city.
I can help but your post is too vague to offer any valid advice.
