If you need additional help beyond the above......

I would suggest starting with fundamental structure, and start by describing
the fundamental "entities" that you want to database and the relationships
between them. To avoid your description getting derailed and avoid
misconceptions that could result in a non-description, I would start by
describing the above without using any Access or Excel terminology.


But to someone who doesn't understand what a database is all about
your description of what needs to be done is way too general. Thus,
in my opinion, it's better to be more specific as to the suggestions.
