Quick question.

I'm looking for a walk-through guide but i can't remember what i want to do is called.

My idea is to make a database for job hunting because i find myself with 20+ job info from job center, 10+ through applying online and the odd few i find in newspapers.

My problem is i collect the data but never ring/email the employers.

I remembered using excel at school and creating MacDonald's till within excel and also another one for adding in new data for a computer company i believe but it looked nice with back grounds etc.

Basically that got me thinking into creating a place i can add new jobs and all the details that go with it. Maybe even encourage me to hunt, I will definitely appreciate it all data in one place.

Thanks in advance i know it's not a techincal question.

Re: Quick question.

Hi

Asssuming this database will not grow to a huge volume, then you can certainly do this in Excel.

As to how you do it, well that's really up to you. For example, you could have an input form where you input details of jobs etc. The data is then written to a specific sheet. You could also have a search form, where you look for data. Or perhaps just input directly to a sheet. To be honest, trial and error is probably the best method. Know what you can do and get an idea of how you want your data to appear etc. We can certainly help if you get stuck.
