thats why i mentioned a portal...they are db based and you probably wouldn't have to do too much tweeking.
if you're on a windows server...check out
http://www.soopportal.org it's free and very skinnable. Its Access/MS Sql & ASP - there are lots of others as well.
| Thanks so much for the responses. As far as a portal goes I don't even know
| where to begin. I am going to a conference next week about a programering
| and webportals maybe I can find someone to help. After some thought I do
| think this is going to have to be a database solution. But hey if someone at
| this conference can show me a better way then it's all up on the drawing
| board again lol. Thanks so much guys...
