Hi guys, I want to create a database mangaement system such that which can be shared by other people too...it can be edited, saved and take printout online. I want to make a excel sheet containing living expenses which can be updated and modified by any number of user. Can some one help me with maintainence of database management for such website
Such a software it's doesent exist ... but you can have some alternatives if your users will learn how to use csv and phpmyadmin ... is not a big job but in this way you can update your database from excel files but manualy.
could you try using googles spreadsheet options? and letting everyone edit it by adding their emails to your friends list? just an idea!
As far as I know MS Excel cannot manage large amount of data. It is only suitable for less than 250 rows.
I suggest you DB + Export to Excel scheme. Excel could not handle multiple users on the same file and data errors will occur.
How about creating an MS Access database? That should be pretty easy without needing much knowledge about SQL and other database stuff..
Sure, what are the requirements and how much are you willing to pay? Seriously, questions like this always kill me. ( Can you help me create this application = I have no idea what I am doing, will someone do it for me? ). If you are serious about this type of stuff, you can definitely get help on the forums, but for God's sake ask direct questions. For example, how do I insert data into a table using PHP, etc. Showing initiative and asking intelligent questions will get you better responses. Sorry for the rant, but its been bugging me. If you are serious about this project, I would either pick up a book on PHP/MySQL or hire someone. You can PM me for rates Also, excel is capable of handling way more that 250 rows. Not saying its a great tool, but it is capable. J
Don't start with defining the software and then adapting the task to it. Start by describing what you want to do (i.e. I want a system that will track living expenses online for a group of people) and you'll get much better answers and even ideas to expand the concept.
Google docs is probably the best site to use for what you want to do. If you need something more than a simple spreadsheet, you could try www.recs4free.com This will allow you to design your own forms for data entry.
