You have several avenues: \n  + pre-recorded training\n  + live training\n\nBoth of these avenues can be pursued with standard traing tools.  For pre-recorded training you can use MicroSoft Word flowcharts and MS PowerPoint screenprints for simply training where there are very few branches.  For live training you can use MS NetMeeting to give the users opportunity to interact with you.  You can pay extra to large consulting firms for more specialized tools but you will not get the same reliability and performance you can get from these standard MS products.

There used to be loads of places, but they have all gone! I have been looking myself as I am trying to put a training program together. So far I have only found http://www.internet-explorer-tutorials.com/index.html\nand http://www.lakeland.cc.il.us/online/tutorials/index.htm both are well written but rather basic. If you find any more please drop me a line. The stuff you are looking for is all included in Microsoft Certified training, but you will probably have to pay.

.NET is very complex and advanced, I'd really recommend you go on a course and buy a good book / manual rather than trying to learn from resources on the net.\n\nThis website http://www.appdev.com/promo.asp?page=SE00005 does provide a free of charge sample training CD that might help you decide whether further training is for you tho.

Microsoft Access might be a nice choice to start.  If you decide to go to something else, the database file itself can be easily converted to another database program, and it is compatible with SQL and ODBC

You can go down to your local library and pick up books that will teach you all you need to know. If you have Office at home then just pick up the books and hack away.  I took 2 courses of MS office in college and there was nothing there that I could not have taught myself.  Good Luck.

You may try Microsoft Office's website. There are some online training courses.\n\nhttp://office.microsoft.com/en-us/training/default.aspx

Microsoft Access software can do that.

I nearly went on an IT training course but decided against it due to high fees (hundreds of pounds) for a Sybex book and "online support". Ask the British Computer Society. You'd probably be better off with more recognised organisations like your local university or your library.

BPP Training offers some free samples on their website.\n\nhttp://www.bpptraining.com/\n\n(The server's down at the moment....)\n\nTheir materials are good as well (since you just buy their manual INSTEAD of all the recommended books - and so much easier to understand those texts!)

It really depends upon what you need. I would think that you should be able to buy a software package (which may or may not use Microsoft Access) for your needs. I don't really know exact prices, but I would expect from $20 to $300, you could find something. \n\nIf you are willing to use open source software, the following link contains a list. Some of these may be free, others may charge a licensing fee. Generally, they are less expensive than buying a package from a retailer.\n\nhttp://dmoz.org/Computers/Software/Industry-Specific/Real_Estate/Property_Management/\n\nIf you find that there is no software available which meets  your needs, a good Access programmer is going to cost you at least $30/hour and easily $100/hr. Just for the programmer to figure out what exactly you need is going to cost you $150 to $200.  \n\nUnless you have special needs, it will probably be better to buy a package and modify your office rather than get specialized, one-of-a-kind software. The home-grown option may provide you more support, but will be more costly.

MS Access comes with some sample databases.  Other than that, you just have to look for some.
