Hi everyone
I know this is off topic but I have been searching the net and can't find what I want there so I thought I would ask here.
I am a member of the local fire brigade and we are after a program to log our fire reports.
It needs to be like a form with drop down boxes and multiple choices.
I have done one in ms word but it wont generate a report number automatically for us or save to a diffrent file without human input.
As there are about 20 people that would be using the program it needs to be as automated as possible.
I think I am after something like an invoicing program that generates its own number and date and can be saved and edited at a later date too.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks Jeff

How are your Access skills, you'd be able to get something going with that.

Try looking for a helpdesk type application... that would allow you to log the call and the resolution and any further notes. There should be a few free apps around of that sort...

If the access thing doesnt work out you could allways create a excel sheet..
Very basic but might do the trick..
