Subject: Meeting of Access/VB User Group in North Hampton


SUBJECT:   Seacoast Microsoft Access User Group -
           Alternatives to On-Line Systems

Time and Place:

July 20, 1999 from 5:30 PM to 8:30 PM at 216 Lafayette Road at the  Key
Computer Learning Center, across from Abercrombie and Fitch Restaurant,
North Hampton, NH - 5.5 Miles south of the Portsmouth Traffic Circle on
Route 1 (5.5 miles north of Rte 101 in  Hampton).   Attendance is free, and
no reservations are required.

Program:

Networking and Q&A are an important feature beginning promptly at 5:30,
followed by presentations.

To eliminate re-entering data which invariably introduced mistakes, a
multi-store cell-phone company needed a means for electronically
transferring serial numbers of delivered phones to its stores, where
Quickbooks was being used for point-of-sale.  A multi-store book seller had
a similar requirement, having to re-enter data from Excel spreadsheets in
order to perform database analysis.  Floppy disks and a customized solution
using Excel as the front end for Microsoft Access provided a timely answer
for the book store.  For the cell-phone company, a floppy disk was included
with the shipment, part of a methodology to establish responsibility and
accountability.  In each case, a user friendly Microsoft Access program was
developed to complete the transfer and solve other business problems.
