Quote:quote:perhaps the HERs are not the best place for that data, but should just reside on the websites
Can't possibly agree with this statement.
Oh, and Access isn't ours to sell, perhaps you should be talking to Microsoft? I'm quite happy that HBSMR is probably the best off the peg system - it is (or can be) Access based though as far as I'm aware. Database design isn't rocket science, and most HERs are quite small and static datasets really when compared with applications outside of archaeology. Increasingly HERs are online, and this is the way forward - one stop shops.
Really said all I want to on this issue. Am taking my ball home now.
