To Superc and Tim R.

What you need is someone to help you make some practical decisions on what
you want it to do, and then, you will end up with a fairly simple but
specialized-to-you requirement. The latter is predicated on the users being
careful, and understanding Access a bit. In this case, you might try to
get a little paid help, but not from someone who violates forum rules and
solicits here. If your users are neither, then it would be a much larger
job to make a bulletproof application that persons knowing zero about Access
will easily use, in which case those "expensive" apps might not really be
expensive.

You are both welcome to the DB that I run (for free,) but it is not
documented, and is complex/abstract in that it tracks residences, people,
their past and present roles and history, business offerings that might be of
interest to residents, and prints all of that out (is also a companion to a
CAD drawing/map of the subdivision with who lives where ) but does not have
a billing section because being Treasurer is "not-my- job-man!"
