Hi,
I remember seeing details of a course on this but we have a pressing
need to think about what can and can't easily be done.
We often do searches on databases via Dialog and the results can be a
bit indigestible especially if there is a lot of information.
We've been asked to come up with a way of presenting results in a
standard format for ease of reference by end users.
Is anyone already doing this kind of thing? If so, how? Was it easy to
come up with an IT based solution? We're currently thinking in terms of
a standard Word table format and hoping we may be able to get some
macros written to insert the text appropriately ... not that I could do
that myself, but someone in IT might be able to set it up for us ...
We don't feel we have the staff time to spend editing files manually so
if anyone has a simple fast solution we'd be very interested to hear
about it.
Thanks in advance,
Nickie Roome
