What is it you are trying to achieve?
I am trying to make a turing file that will create a file on a wordpad, and store names (from video games, people I don't want to group with). I want to be able to type in names, classes, levels, and reasons for people I don't want to group with again. I would like to be able to search them by name and get a list of those stats on that person, and be able to remove them from the list. I also need to be able to list them all off.


What is the problem you are having?
I haven't used turing since highschool. I probably could have pulled it off back then, I remember knowing this stuff, but forgot how. Any quick tips, or useful shortcuts would be helpful.


Describe what you have tried to solve this problem
I am reading over the Turing tutorials from this site. So far I have read over the first few basics.


Post any relevant code (You may choose to attach the file instead of posting the code if it is too long)
I am doing some more reading before I start. Figured I'd submit this, hopefully get some advice while I read on.

Please specify what version of Turing you are using
Turing 4.1.1





Thank you,

What you need is an access database and to make use of the form designer.

Well, I have Microsoft Access, I don't know it very well, I've used it once for a chapter in a class. I figured relearning Turing would be quicker.

No, this is precisely what access was designed for. You should try using it, perhaps read an intro tutorial.

Any relational database would do. If Access is your only experience with databases, it's probably the best option.
