Hi

I don't think anyone will be able to answer your question as you don't give
enough detail.

If you don't have a database then you need to make one.
If you can not make one or have never made one before try this site for the
basics
http://www.microsoft.com/learning/default.mspx

You "may" be able to get a ready made database from here
http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/templates/CT101172481033.aspx

and then change it so it will do what you want - but if you don't know how
to do this then you will need do the training first to enable you to create
anything that works as you want it

It will take some time to learn to use access but after a short while you
should be able to create a database that will eprform as required

Good luck with your application

So... you want an unpaid volunteer to design and implement it for you?
Probably several hours of unpaid work...

Sorry, but you're being unreasonable here. This is not a forum for free labor;
it's a peer-support forum where people like you, or like me (self employed
computer consultant) to help one another on a volunteer basis.

Here are some resources to help you get started:

It looks like you need tables to hold the OrderMaterials and OrderActivities
with a foreign key in both to point back to Orders.ID field.

You can use subforms on a main form to control the data entry.
