bug tracking solution

[mortee]

Hi,

I'm looking for a bug/issue tracking solution done entirely in MS Access. Does such a thing exist?

My requirements are that it must need only Access, and be accessible in a shared environment solely by opening a .mdb file from a shared folder. It must support various issue lifecycle related things, and the stuff those tracking systems do in general.

It may or may not be commercial software.

If anyone knows of such an available solution, please let me know.

(And yes, I've searched on Google, and haven't found anything worthwile, so that's why I'm asking here now.)

thx

If you're refering to debugging, here's some practical tips on that :

And of course you should use the Compact and Repair to prevent bloating your Dbase.

Rak:

I think that he's looking for a tracking solution for development work, not how to fix something.

I don't know of any finished Access solutions, but I really liked this Online tracking system:

You're right Bob
I stand corrected.

You're right Bob
I stand corrected.

No problem - I've done that too many times to count, so you're not alone

Thanks guys. Bob's right, I'm looking for a tool to help teamwork, not debugging.

Anyway, I know of a lot of web-based solutions for that, but unfortunately that doesn't qualify. As I've wrote, I have reason to require that the whole DB and UI can be used by opening an .mdb file from a shared folder on the local network. Not even an intranet webserver, or personal web serving, or even any custom installed software are allowed in my current environment.

I've already found a MS-provided template solution in pure Access which is aimed right at this purpose, but it's a bit too basic, I need more standard issue-tracking features, like history tracking, multi-user commenting, preferably email notifications and the like.
