Hello everyone, thanks for the replies.
I've had a word with the manager concerned & he agrees that this is the
way that we want to go with this.
We want to be able to allow network users to browse the intranet, select
a MODsheet page, choose to create
a new MODsheet and enter some details. upon confirmation have a page
shown with an allocated MODsheet number
which they can then print out.
Also to be able to do some searches on one or several fields within the
data & pull up any sheets that correspond.
Not knowing enough about web page design to do it myself I can clearly
see that all the above are easily possible <grin>..
So I think that I'll have to find someone that can do it & put it to the
bosses that we get an outsider to do it for us.
Thanks for the suggestions.
Matthew.
