I want to make a database which contains the contents of DVDs OF All months issues in such a way that helps me to look for any utility easily contained in any DVD as the Digit Finder is not running on my system and showing errors.....

For this I want to make tables with Table name as of "Multimedia" or "Games" or "System" etc. with Field Names as "Jan10" or "Dec09" .......{as per months publication}

Please help me out how can i make such a database on MS Access or suggest me some other DBMS on which my problem can be sorted out easily.....

:cry::cry::cry::cry::cry::cry::cry::cry::cry::cry: :cry::cry::cry:Help me out....... :hissyfit:

^^No it wont. The alpha version is too buggy. It doesn't run from any shortcut's of the app from the start menu. You need it to run from the installation directory in program files.

just take the archive.xml file from your program files directory and import the xml data to excel using import feature.

It's very easy man.

If i recall correctly, there used to be an option in the menu giving you the freedom to split the contents of a cell into multiple cells if there was a space between the words.

so what you need to do is:
1. copy the contents into a notepad file
2. import it
3. split the contents into multiple cells using that tool

Upload a copy of the xml file somewhere and I can take a look at it if you want. I'm no expert though .

impossible?

No dude...it is the same thing that I have done. I used the XML directly and parsed it in making the digit archive.

Further I have an upcoming build that used SQL Server DB internally which i populated by exporting the XML data to SQL Server table. It is similar in the case of access too.

If any queries PM me. I am happy to help.
