Does anyone here know much about working with Access 2007?
I want to create a searchable database for all my guitar magazines. Something that I can add to by typing into an forms-type interface that will add a line to the document with the newly input data. Something that can quickly provide me with a list of issues that contain Paul Gilbert columns. Or tabs of Iron Maiden songs. Or legato workshops. Stuff like that.
I use Access databases at work, so there's a level of familiarity, but I've never had to create one with this sort of functionality before. None of the templates I've found at MS have been much help either.
Any experts here that can lend a helping hand? I figure if I can create such a document, it could be shared amongst the JCFers, since I'm sure a lot of you have tragically unmanageable magazine collections too.
The same kind of database might be good for cataloguing CD collections too.
