In any case, if the users will have internet access or similar, the

This was my thought too.
Joomla! has a brilliant extension available called Fabrik which is
essentially a database & form design tool that allows the user to
build custom storage for pretty much anything (I use it frequently on
websites we build for customers). As it is a Joomla! extension it runs
atop of the same MySQL database. Joomla!, being a web cms, allows the
developer pretty much unlimited ways to present this data for user
access and search etc.
Alan,
I like that! I have knocked up a few sites using Drupal and Wordpress
and never thought of CMS as a front ends. I'm getting old!
This is particularly attractive as I have access to a resellers package
through a friend. I have not used Joomla! but how hard can it be? :-)
Thanks again.
Bob
