Allen Browne's 'Library Resource'
hello gurus
I have learned a lot by studying the 'Library resource' example on Allen Browne's web site. This offers a lot of good advice on the organization of tables for a Library database. Is an actual Database file available so I can study this a little deeper? I've searched the web, but couldn's find this database. I'm not sure, but it may have been in SAMS 'Essential Access 95'. Much thanks Cinnie -- cinnie |

Allen Browne's 'Library Resource'
Dear cinnie:
I wasn't aware of Allen's library resource until I saw your post, but I was glad to see it and will be studying it myself! You might also be interested in the freeware small library application I've made available (see my signature); it may also give you some ideas! Cheers! -- Fred Boer - Amateur Access Enthusiast Interests: Library software / Z39.50 / Web Services Freeware Small Library Application available he http://www3.sympatico.ca/lornarourke/ "cinnie" wrote in message ... hello gurus I have learned a lot by studying the 'Library resource' example on Allen Browne's web site.

Allen Browne's 'Library Resource'
Thanks Allen
My interest wasn't in designing a Library database per se, but I was interested in some of the subtler issues you dealt with in the table design. (the fact that it dealt with library resources was incidental) My actual project involves a program to help run my daughter's soccer club. I want to get the table design right, and your 'Library Resource' gave me new ways to deal with some of the problem areas.

Fred - that's a nice resource! I'm studying the relationships between your
tables and picking up some good tips. That's an area I need to improve in.
