    each user has one month record

    hi,

    im creating a time recording database which is being used by 100 users...everyday each user logs his own start and end time...how can i create a database that would hold up a monthly record for each user? say user1 logs on day1 start and end time...the following day user logs day2 start and end time...the following day user1 logs his start and end time again and so goes the cycle daily...so all in all user1 would have a monthly record of his daily start and end time...how can i accomplish this???

    thanks,

    stoey

    I assume each user logs on to the same shared workbook.

    Why not make a worksheet (tab) for each employee? That employee would enter data start/end time for each day only on that worksheet.

    You could make a SUMMARY sheet that extracts the data for all users. This SUMMARY sheet would be only accessible by you.

    As a twist, you could password protect each sheet with a different password. Look on past threads for an explanation on how the individual passwords can be done.

    Hope this helps.

    Hello there,

    How are you currently tracking them logging in and out? I.E. are they entering their information into a table or a form?

    Thanks!

    Quite simply, you wouldn't bother. The users just log the times etc in the table and you run a query to get the dates and times per user per month

    hi kyle,

    thanks for replying as well...user's are using form in entering their time INs and OUTs and these are being stored in a table...uhhmm let's say its August 21, each user has a time IN and OUT for that day...so how can he logged his time IN and OUT for August 22 and so on? I'm not sure how to accomplish this...I dont know how can I create a record like for August 1 to 31 for their time INS and OUT...

    Re: each user has one month record

    Your table would be something like:
    User - DateTime In - DateTime Out
    User - DateTime In - DateTime Out
    User - DateTime In - DateTime Out
    User - DateTime In - DateTime Out
    User - DateTime In - DateTime Out
    User - DateTime In - DateTime Out

    Then
    PHP Code: 
    SELECT FROM YourTable WHERE User=UserID AND Month(DateTimeIN)=
