How do I set up a volunteer database that tracks hours worked?

[Guest]

I am attempting to set up a database of volunteers that work at company
events. For recognition purposes, I would like to create a database that
tracks their hours worked at these events in addition to their contact info
and volunteer preferences (e.g. type of event, shifts, etc.). Can anyone
please help in a not too technical way or provide me with a pre-made template?

There is no such thing as an Access 'template'.
However, Access provides sample databases to execute and study as examples.
Click 'HELP' then 'Sample Databases'.

Well, Microsoft includes a number of sample databases here, among its
"templates", so I suppose one could be forgiven for asking for an Access
'template'.

Dear Orlin1261:

There are Access templates here:

These templates might give you some ideas. A complete Access application
that fits your business requirements, though, isn't something a template
will give you. You'll probably have to buy a professionally written program,
hire a programmer, or create it yourself!
