Lee,

E-notebook is part of a site-license out dept. has for ChemBioOffice
Ultra, and I believe SOME people do use it, though I don't know of any
for certain. I haven't tried it myself. I do know it installs a
named-instance of Microsoft SQLServer, though...

There is a trial version:

I don't know if this fits the bill, but Cambridgesoft
(www.cambridgesoft.com) has several e-notebook and LIMS products that
might do.

I know that this message is not 100% related to network administration,
but 
my hope is establish contact with someone who has already purchased or 
developed such a system and not have to reinvent the wheel. 

Who knows if you work with supporting research labs, your Faculty might
too 
be interested in such a system. 


Below is an email message from one of my users, it appears that his
needs 
could be met by a system is a cross between an Enterprise Resource
Planning 
(ERP) System and a Laboratory Information Management System (LIMS). 


Does anybody know of such a system (like he describes)? 

Does anybody know of a system that I could modify to meet his
requirements? 

Thanks, 

LD

I am trying to find a software that can help me to organize my lab
materials 
and project better. I guess it should be some database type. You have
sent 
me some links but I couldn't figure out how to use them. My purposes of 
using such program are: 

1. Inventory management: keep track of purchase orders, information of 
vendors, product, and other related information.
2. Book of samples, microorganism isolates, and others. This is critical
if 
I can have such a system. It will be powerful, and efficient to keep all

kinds of records and retrieve them in any way.
We are dealing with thousands of samples and isolates. It would be easy
if 
we work on a secure database.
3. Keep track of research projects. Ideally it allow multiple users to
input 
information or data on one specific file or project. The status can tell
you 
how much has been done, who did it,and what needs to be done.
4. Calendars and project schedule. 

I have tried MS Access, but it's not a pleasant experience. I wish there
is 
something easier and quicker, and can be loaded on the web so that we
can 
operate the system remotely. 

With so much information coming up everyday, I think it is good to use
this 
type of database to manage the lab, both data and materials. In a long
run, 
those data are retrievable and useful. Since I am not familiar to this
area, 
I just keep asking whoever has this experience.
Cassandra and I had a business trip last week. She thought her husband's
lab 
is using something like that. I was so curious to know more about it.
