The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

The Grade of the Solution
The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
The Number of Author and Expert Comments
The Number of Experts Contributing
The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Help this nonprofit export notes, history, contacts out of ACT! 2005

Asked by genesisinfo in ACT, Microsoft Access Database

Tags: export, act, notes

I recently started a job at a very small nonprofit, and amongst other things inherited an ACT!2005 database of donor/potential donor contacts. Its a stand-alone workstation on the network, and has notes and history within the 700 or so records.

I'd like to get it out of ACT! into Access, where I am very very good at. Additionally, we could share the data across the network in a multi-user Access database, unlike ACT!. The problem is, I've found no easy way to get all the notes, history and stuff -- only the contacts, and thats not acceptable. To make matters worse, the company just doesnt have the money to put into buying addon software like the few I've found - I asked, and the Exec Director says we have to put it into the budget for next year any software purchases.

Is there ANY WAY at all, to get the full data out of ACT! without buying software? I'm pretty competent with Access, but look at ACT! and dont find it very useful; that and the fact since its a standalone version, its rarely used.

Any ideas, any at all?
