Daily equipment status
I need to create a document only modifiable by me. It will state the status (up, down, other) of 3 pieces of equipment. The document will be read-only to everyone else able to access it on the intranet. I have Microsoft Office 2007(word, excel, PowerPoint, access, etc. available. I was told that access can do this easily. I do not know access.
Can anyone instruct on how accomplish this task with access preferably or whatever?

To be sure we are on the same page, I assume you mean an internal company web site when you say intranet. Is that correct?
If yes,
Sounds like the job for a web pager if you want it on your intranet It could be as simple as creating a static page that you can edit with Word. It could be a PDF you post. Even better a data driven page using ASP or ASP.net with an XML, Access or SQL Server back end.
It would help to know this:
Is your intranet running on Sharepopint.

Yes, a company intranet and I think it has sharepoint.
Try SharePoint and you will not regret it. You will be able to publish your stats coming from DB, Evcel, etc.

NO SHAREPOINT---I provided some bad information.....my computrer system at work does not have sharepoint. I just verified.
Note: Sharepoint will not be installed on your workstation/pc. It runs on the web server machine.
What are you using for your intranet? Is is not Sharepoint?

I created a word document and made it read only by myself. It works for now.

Is this realistic for Access? If so, how do I do it?
