During our winters we volunteer and help in the Airman's Attic at MacDill AFB. We are trying to bring our record keeping into the twenty-first century and need some help. We are looking for a cheap or free program so that we can register clients and keep track of items they take each visit.
Perhaps one of you computer guys could come up with a solution. We finally have gotten a laptop computer donated so we are moving forward. I am not a programmer but would think some sort of a data-base program similar to MS Access could be used.
This 'Attic' is run completely by volunteers and has no real sponsorship group (no wive's clubs etc).
Check out
Open Office
. It's free, very capable, and almost as good as Microsoft Office. It includes a word processor, spreadsheet program, database program, and more.
Sorry, I don't have the time to create the spreadsheet or database for you. But this may get you going in the right direction - for free!
