Demonstrating capabilities with Microsoft Access  
  Publication management system  
This application monitors magazine production:
   
» There are tables for the base issue, the articles, article type, article categorization, and author information.
   
» The authors are relationally linked to the entity's Access contact table. This provides for reporting on authors multiple contributions to the magazine over its 30 year life.
   
The table information is also used for web reports:
   
» All the information is placed on the web using MS ASP or ASP.Net database driven web pages. This provides text for the search engines.
   
» In addition the tables are linked to Adobe PDF of the entire magazine, the table of contents, plus each article individually.
   
Also, the same table information is used to produce an annual DVD that included all issues over the life of the magazine (30 plus year).

Ratio Analysis Generator for the web reporting system
