Hello all,
Not sure how complex the database requirements are needed here, but about
4 years ago we wanted to use an online database to create an interactive
seminar selection system for students in the Business School. Intially tried
using MS Access and experienced considerable problems, even with some very
experienced programmers, still could not get it to work.
We then tried a PhP/MySQL design linked via Blackboard to an external host
(cost about £100 per annum). Worked rather well and we have created other
databases, which also function without problem. The data files are not stored
in the Blackboard database...
Email me if further details are wanted.
