hi all,

first time posting so please excuse the newbness.

i need to create a customer database, which i would like to be able to generate invoices from, nothing fancy or complicated, just name, address phone number etc. with a button to put this detail into a template word .doc file.

i would also like to be able to import all names and addresses at the end of the year to send a christmas card maybe or promotional e-mail.

how difficult is this to do? i kinda remember doing something similar at school years ago but can't remember how i did it.

any help/information would be greatly appreciated.

thanks in advance

Have a look at the Northwind database on the Access CD. Also there is an address one which you can pinch bits from if you wish.

Those 2 will do what you want.

i will no doubt be posting again soon when i get stuck. :)
