Xanadu Las Vegas new database software!

After trying and horribly failing on several attempts to find a good database software, I have decided on Microsoft Access 2007. Access 2007 is an excellent program for beginners and experts down the road. It did not take me too long to setup and use. I learned about tables and forms and all the neat bell and whistles. I am now at the point where I will be customizing the forms to look nice. I have decided to make several tables and cross reference them. The good news about this is that there will be a place for committee and staff to use the information for the convention. The plan for the future is either to have a server based setup or make the database online to access from other parts of the convention. I know that this will be needed in registration, art show, and the art auction areas. I am still in the long process of inputting all the data into the database. I feel confident that this will be the database program of choice for Xanadu Las Vegas.

I will be teaching the committee and staff on how to use the program at the next meeting. The next Xanadu Las Vegas meeting will be at the Clark County Library on September 28 at 2pm in the conference area. The address of the library is 1401 E. Flamingo Road. I hope to see many new faces!
