Im currently in the process of making a MS Access Database to use as a fishing log, recording what was caught, where, sun/moon/tide times, water temp, colour ect. Im far from a guru with acess and would like to send a copy of my dodgy database for people to use / change and let me know what they think.

Here is a screen shot of the data entry screen, sorry if it is too hard to read. happy to email a copy to anyone who is interested, If someone out there is a acess guru and can improve on it, that would be good......

Download the trial version and give it a go.
I have been using it on and off but my problem is I can never remember what I catch anyway ::)

I will wait to later today and email anyone who is interested, you will need to have MS Access 2000 OR better installed, or use the ms access runtime version.

NPs, I did a course on access late last year and have some really good books on the program.
Cheers,

Ok guys, you can download it from:

http://www.fishingoz.com/#######.zip

Follow the instructions below:


When the files are extracted they will need to be in c:\fishing log for the paths to work, I have Zipped the whole folder so it should extract with the folder structure, if you have any issues make sure the files are in c:\fishing log, not c:\fishing log\fishing log\
