What I Build

Multi-User Database Systems

Access databases that handle 10-50 concurrent users without crashes. Proper locking, split database architecture, and optimized queries.

Custom Forms & Interfaces

User-friendly forms with validation, dropdowns, and navigation. Your team can enter and manage data without training manuals.

Advanced Queries & Reports

Complex queries that pull exactly the data you need. Professional reports with formatting, grouping, and calculations.

Database Repair & Recovery

Fix corrupted databases, recover lost data, rebuild damaged structures. Get your database working again without losing information.

Performance Optimization

Speed up slow databases. Add indexes, optimize queries, compact and repair regularly. Turn a 5-minute query into a 5-second query.

Data Validation & Rules

Enforce business rules at the database level. Prevent invalid data entry, ensure data consistency, and maintain data integrity.

Integration with Excel & SQL

Connect Access to Excel files, SQL Server databases, and other data sources. Import/export data automatically.

Security & User Management

Set up user permissions, password protection, and access controls. Ensure only authorized users can view or modify sensitive data.

Automation & Macros

Automate repetitive tasks with VBA macros. Run processes on schedule, send automated emails, and trigger actions based on events.

Database Migration

Migrate Access databases to SQL Server when you outgrow Access. Preserve all data, relationships, and functionality.

Backup & Maintenance Systems

Set up automated backups, compact and repair schedules, and maintenance routines. Keep your database healthy and prevent data loss.
