Job Description

AMENDED JOB DESCRIPTION FOLLOWING EARLIER ENQUIRIES

I need to be able to do the following for a charitable club.

* 115 Gentlemen and 85 Lady Members ...... (whose names, contact details, gender etc etc are all kept on a purchased Access Membership database and which has been altered to meet my specific requirements in terms of the information I currently require and which can mail merge, email and using a word template create club letters)........ individually submit to me a handwritten list of 12 horses.

* 95% of those horses will appear on a list (of some 24,000 horses which changes annually) I already have in Excel 2007.

* AS the original lists are all individually handwritten spelling - deciphering - typos all play their part, thus some form of predicitve text would be essential as I know my list has no spelling mistakes.

* From these 200+/- lists I have to create two A5 booklets, with four lists on each page and one booklet for each gender. (SAMPLE ATTACHED)

* Whatever the solution, I have to do this all again next year, with a different list of horses!

* It may be that the exisitng Access mdb could be utilised or a separate function built-in. It might be as many have suggested, simply a matter of creating a simple Excel - Word synchronicity. It might as even more have suggested be do-able by simply doing the whole thing in Excel.

Hope that helps.

Nick, does the A5 booklet have to be in Word, or can the Excel workbook be used to print the booklet? Eric

I don't suppose it does. It will go to KallKwik or some such for printing - it just has to end up in that size

Hello Nick,

I would strongly suggest you look at a more permanent and efficient solution in terms of a database application. The advantages are reusability of an interface for data entry, storing and querying members information and their submissions, data reporting and printing. Nevertheless your budget would be low for this type of application. An excel or word app would by no means provide you with the desired level of automation.

Kind Regards and Good Luck
