flexible databases  Bottom

  • What I would really like to be able to do is build databases from the admin interface in a flexible way. I moderate a univesity site and staff would like to be able to create searchable databases (such as bibliographical data) which students can use/submit to.

    I have very feeble IT skills, so I would like to be able to click on a link and then set up a new dbase with a certain number of fields. It would be good to be able to edit these later as well as moderate the data content.

    The good news is my department may have a bit of research money to get someone to write the code (which we would then share with the community) but a) has this been done before? and b) if I can get it organised what features should I ask to be included?

  • This has been asked many times before as it would solve many problems in one go. It is probably a substantial project in its own right.

    One day, someone will pick the project up, I hope...
