Need Incoming Mail Database

Default Mail database

I am the Internal Affairs Officer at our local detention center and I am
responsible for the accountability of all incoming mail to our inmates. I was
wondering if anyone already has a database that I could massage for this
purpose. I only need it to accept the inmates name, OCA#, name and address of
sender, date received, general comment field. Any help would be appreciated.

Default Mail database

I figure you need two tables.
tblInmate --
InmateID - autonumber - primary key
OCA - text
Lname - text
Fname - text
Middle - text
Gender - text
DOB - DateTime

tblMail --
MailID - autonumber - primary key
InmateID - number long integer - foreign key
Lname - text
Fname - text
Middle - text
Suffix - JR, SR, II, III, etc.
Title - MR, MS, MRS, MISS, REV, etc.
Addr1
Addr2
City -
ST -
Country - default USA
DateRecd - DateTime
PostMark - DateTime
PostOffc - text - town, Zip, etc.
RMKS - Memo

Create one-to-many relationship between tblInmate and tblMail on InmateID.
Use form/subform (continous) for inmate/mail with Master/Child links set on
InmateID.

Paying *you* for your "services" of dubious quality is everyone's last act
of desperation.
