School Volunteers Access 2003  version only(612 KB) .

April, 2008.  School Volunteers was originally created when I was in charge of a major School Fund Raiser at my daughter's school. I used the previous version of this application for 4 years and my successor used it for 3 more years. Recently, I decided to update it and make it available here as well. You may download and try it out for free. If you have an earlier version of Access, contact Grover Park Consulting. We'll try to arrange for you  to get the right version for your software.

To try it out, create a folder for it on your hard-drive and save the compressed file,  schoolfundraising.zip,  to that folder. Double-click on the "zip" file to open and extract the files into that folder. Double-click on "FundRaisingFE.mdb" to launch the application. You'll be asked to locate the data tables. They are in the file called "FundRaisingBE.mdb". Locate that file and follow the on-screen dialogues to link to the data tables.

There is no documentation for this application, but the functions should be discoverable. If you have questions about it, contact us at Grover Park Consulting.

To purchase a full version of the Application, customized to meet your organization's unique needs,  please contact Grover Park Consulting.

Jerry Dennison on Naming Conventions and Jerry Dennison on Normalization An excellent overview of the subject by the best in the business. While it may be a bit on the technical side for some, it is as well-written and no-nonsense as any discussion we've seen on the subject.
