Hello everyone,
I have seen several threads on here about people asking for assistance with creating a library system using access.
Here's my situation I'm looking to create a system to check books in and out of my school library using Access2010. The library is not very big as we are a small special school. My first steps was to sort the library, level books and catalogue them. I have done this using excel.
I found a template for a school library system for access,
http://access.microsofttemplates.org/personal-database-templates/library-catalog-template.html
Clearly I underestimated my ability with access, not what they were in 2009. This template is absolutely brilliant, although far more detailed than I need it.
If anyone could give me some help I need to,
1) Import my data from excel.
2) Alter the details in the template (I tried, but have a feeling I messed stuff up)
3) Add in a quantity field as I have several copies of some books, on the template it doesn't have the option to check out several different copies to different people.
I have watched several videos and read many guides on some of these features, which has left me more confused than when I started. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Matt
