Default I think I need a tutor

I'm up to here in projects that I know will work great if I knew more about
how to work with Access. I wasted a TON of time last year taking a three
credit Access class at my local tech college, and I'm still stumped on how to
build a simple data base.
The current project is to enter the data from a stack of questionnaires and
manage the results. Simple, right?
Please email me if you have babysitter time available to help me with this
project.

You didn't take the college course as SWIC did you? I could have been the
instructor! :-(

I highly recommend reading "Database Design for Mere Mortals" by Hernandez.

Also Duane Hookom has a sample survey database at:
http://www.rogersaccesslibrary.com/OtherLibraries.asp

Look for: At Your Survey 2000.

Not available for tutoring (and you probably wouldn't like my rates anyway),
but here's a specific reference for how to handle questionnaires, and a bunch
of Access training resources:

Duane Hookum's "At Your Survey" questionnaire sample database:

The link is broken. :-(

A phone tutoring would be great.
And it was in Wisconsin, I don't know where SWIC is.

The link works for me, but some newsreaders drop the last apostrophe. Try
this link
http://www.rogersaccesslibrary.com/O...p#Hookom,Duane
and then click the At Your Survey link in Duane's section.

That's why I usually just give the basic
http://www.rogersaccesslibrary.com/OtherLibraries.asp
and suggest that they search for a particular file.

Feeling better I hope!

Shirley,
You are certainly welcome to ask specific question in these newsgroups at
any time. You will get excellent advice (in most cases). It would not be
proper for anyone in the groups to do telepone consulting with you. That is
because the answers here are for the benefit of everyone. It is best to do a
search on your question before you post. It may have already been answered.

If you feel you need serious hand holding, you should try to find a
competent professional in your local area and be ready to pay an hourly fee
for the assistance.

You may find you can resolve your issues by breaking the problem into small
chunks and asking for advice here. Select a group that you feel most
describes your question and ask away.

Even if you have a general question as to how to get started, ask that.
Then you can filter it down to specifics.

Darn... and I had this great idea, too, John! Instead of seductive women
urging lonely men to call, we could have late night TV commercials showing
bunch of Access experts!! I can see it now - MVPs and other Access wizards,
flipping suggestively through their copies of the ADH, leering into the
camera and offering to satisfy your *every* Access question - only a quick
call away!!

Too bad that you aren't available..
