Contacts Database and Email system

[steve1978]

Hi,

i have Access 2003 and i would like to create a database. Initially i would just like to be able to record a persons name, contact details and a notes box that i could free text in to.

I am new to access and i must admit, its difficult! Does anyone have a template of this? something that i could pick up and modify to suit my needs?

I would also like the system to email me on given dates, is that possible. Example, if i enter a box for a reminder date and on that date the database emails me or alerts me with a message... "birthday" or similar?

Contact templates ship with Access and there are pleanty on the MS Office web site. Google is your friend.
