Hi folks,

I am a VB rookie in the most basic sense.  I've just been volunteered to
set up a database/work in progress system for the company I work for
with the following criteria:

-  users enter several differnet types of data (lot #'s, masses,
volumes, usr ID, etc).

-  the data must be saved onto an "SLQ" server

-  the data must be retrievable by anyone on a 200 PC network and easily
sorted into control charts and SPC information.

-  when a user enters data, the system will need to do a check to make
sure the entry is valid ie:  weight in spec, etc.

Thats the gist of it for the most part.  There are a few more features
that will be needed but that is the basic system.

My question is-  how tough is this to set up using VB 5 without much
experience?  I've dabbled with it a bit and I can't see it being too
much trouble.

Anyway, I'm very curious to know anyone's opinion concerning the scope
and magnitude of this project.

This is pretty simple for any experienced VB/SQL programmer.
Very likely, it is just reusing existing code and actually
removing a lot of other code that will not be used.

It is doable, but there is a learning curve you will have to
go through.  If you have a free hand at this, then this is
an excellent way to learn, make mistakes that you can learn
from etc.  Is this a luxury/privilege available to you?
