I have worked with computers since 1990, starting out as a
database designer. I am currently building databases on two
platforms: Microsoft Access and the internet.
 Access.
This standard Microsoft Office tool is great for quickly building
small to medium size databases and user front ends. Using it
I have created databases for a number of clients of varying
sizes.
Office Procedures:
I have built Anti-Social Behavior, Complaints, Lettings and
Resident Participation databases. Each database has from 5 to
25 users, which can log in separately, and work at the same
time.
The databases are secure, with different levels of user security,
and contain an audit trail to log user activity. The screens
are easy to use and can be built to your specifications.
 Data
Collection and Summation:
I have built questionnaire entry systems that collect, validate
and summarise data
 Membership
Databases:
Quick, simple membership databases can easily be created
to collect, edit and manage your membership lists. Data can
be imported from any source: Word lists, Spreadsheets... Mailouts,
labels, letters, all can be created. Functions will be built
to suit your needs.
The Internet.
Access is all well and good, but it needs to be linked on an
office network if you want multiple users to have access to
it. I am also skilled in online database websites. Because the
data is held securely on the internet, users can access the
data from any computer in the world that is connected to the
internet. These sites come in two flavours: membership sites
and portfolio sites...
 Membership
sites:
These allow registered users to logon
and access special functions, like updating their personal details,
or bidding for services. There is also an admin logon that allows
the site owner to logon and access the membership lists and
all the other functions.
For examples of membership sites I have built, please visit
www.wflets.org and www.artsclub.org.uk
and www.hackneyplay.org
 Portfolio
Sites:
These sites are for single users; artists and designers etc.
The sites have an admin logon that allow the owners to logon
and upload images to their portfolio database. This way the
artist can keep their website to to date from any computer with
internet access.
