Additional function/feature for NRDB
28 October, 2008 - 05:47
I am just new to the NRDB software, no doubt its a user-friendly software. i am just wondering if an additional feature be added on the software, like for example, if a click a specific lot on the map, the software should generate the report pertaining to that specific lot only. can anyone help me bout this please. thank you and more power
Hi Emma
Am making an educated guess here (Miller - please correct me if I'm wrong) but NRDB could refer to a natural resources database. Typically, you can use that sort of software to get information by geographical area.
Miller - are you suggesting that we have a map on this community? I could click on an area of the map (e.g. the Pacific) and it will show me which volunteers are currently working there and which RVs did work there. Great idea!!

Nikki, some what you got my point, since its a database, and input details from the user is critical, therefore a function that would allow a user to click on a specific lot, then the report for that particular lot will be generated basing from the database or input of the user. thats all the additional function that i would like to be added for NRDB. Thanks a lot Nikki, at least you got the point.

Hi Miller, I've only just come across this post. If you are referring the NRDB Pro software (www.nrdb.co.uk) it already contains this functionality. Right click on a feature on the map and select 'Sectoral Report' from the popup menu to get a report with all information about it. You can get support with the software through the website.
