shipping database
I am looking for a simple Access application (2003 or higher), much like the
FedEx QuickShip program, except I only need the Shipping (with capability to print shipping label) and View History features. It would allow me to: - enter sender name, phone number, email address - enter ship to name, address, phone #, email address - print a shipping label with the above information - view shipping history for selected sender I found several Access database templates. However, there is not one for shipping. Any help you can provide will be greatly appreciated. |

shipping database
snlcoy,
Your need is quite specific and you are not likely to find the exact database. (Especially here in a forum where people come to get help with their exisitng databases.) You will find ones, as you have seen, that can be modified with some elbow grease and some help for FREE from the folks here. However, if you decide to hire someone please check your local Universities and/or Colleges. CHECK and DOUBLE CHECK references. -- Gina Whipp "I feel I have been denied critical, need to know, information!" - Tremors II http://www.regina-whipp.com/index_files/TipList.htm "snlcoy" wrote in message ...

Thanks for the suggestion Gina. I really didn't expect to find the exact
database. I am hoping someone will direct me to one with "closest" functionality and I will customize with my limited elbow grease.

Unfortunately, nothing I have seen is close to that one.

shipping database
I was also looking for a shipping database, and ended up building my own.
Mine has a lot more fields in it than what you wanted, but it works just fine for me at work. All it does is just hold records of all the shipment that our company ships either out or in, with dates and carriers. I used queries to get quartely sales figures from different companies we sell to, and have contact details of both cutomers and shippers. So if my boss wants to know about a particular shipment coming in from Japan, I just do a quick seach on a said field and bring up all the details of where it is, and who is handling it, etc. snlcoy wrote: Thanks for the suggestion Gina.
