Michael

Are you asking this newsgroup to do your homework?

Are you asking us to read the exam requirements and take your exam?

These newsgroups are "staffed" by volunteers. The 'groups work great to
help folks who post a specific question.

Do you have a particular, specific question?

Good luck on your exams!

sorry i didn't make it clear in my first post, i am just asking if any
one has any suggestions or topics for what my database could be based
on, there is no need for anyone to do any work for me.

Hi Michael,

Access is one of the very best tools for developing small to medium
databases and I would be surprised if an A level course demanded
anything in the way of data management that it can't easily handle. If
you have it, you need look no further.

Hi Michael,

Here are a couple of Access applications that I've created in the past:

1.) A database for the Merceyside Police Dept. in the UK for tracking
volunteers time and expenses. It includes the Neighbourhood, Area (Wirral,
Sefton, Knowsley, etc.) and Station that each volunteer is assigned to, and
tracks various attributes such as number of arrests made, hours volunteered
per month, and expenses for subsistance, travel, boot (whatever that is), and
other.

2.) A database for Team Transplant, a non-profit group that is sponsored by
the University of Washington Medical Center, in Seattle, WA. This group was
created to help promote the health of transplant patients, by encouraging
them to exercise (specifically, they train for a few marathons each year).
The database tracks member attributes such as name, address, category (type
of transplant, or if Friend/Family member), emergency contact information,
team apparrel ordered (ie. hats, shirts, jackets, etc. with the Team
Transplant logo), and other items purchased, such as a dinner the week before
the marathon, post-race party, massages, etc.

Is this the type of input that you are looking for?

If you are asking for a topic, I'd point out that what you already know
about (things you do, groups you work with, services you provide or need
provided) would make designing a database much easier.
