Subject:Need Sample Data From:"K. Toast Conger" <ktoast -at- WOLFENET -dot- COM> Date:Tue, 12 Jan 1999 07:47:42 -0800
I am working for a client who would like to spin around a training manual in
very short order. We need a set of sample data. The client would like an
Access database using a "course" scenario with rooms, trainers, classes,
students, etc.
Does anyone have ideas regarding where we could beg, borrow, or buy either:
a complete sample database or sample "washed" data? We would rather not have
to recreate the wheel, especially with our time constraints.
Please e-mail ideas to ktoast -at- wolfenet -dot- com -dot- I will summarize and post to the
list if I receive multiple responses.
