Actually, along these lines, I was thinking about using Access for
cataloguing my slides and negatives. Trouble is, I'm having a devil of a
time working out why I need a relational database to do this. I'm trying to
work out what tables I need, and I'm stuck on one. Hey, I'm new to this
game.
Anyone done this before?
OM content? Of course! Whaddya think I took the slides and negs with?
I only started thinking about this when I was reviewing everything for the
web site. I need to keep track of subjects across many trips, often to the
same places, and it's getting a bit complicated. It also occurs to me that
if I am hit by a number seven bus the information locked up in the
photographs will be incomplete. Having this problem just now with the
photographs left by dead relatives.
Any replies on- or off-list would be welcome. Access is what I have, but
structure-wise any similar info on other databases would help.
Donald.
