Re: The build date project
Reading some suggestions above, especially dates, you might consider a different format. Don't get me wrong, this effort by the two is outstanding, I'm reminded of the effort put into indexing the assembly manual, all we had to do was number 500+ pages
Perhaps this is a usable format. You can sort by any column and I think easier to manager by the task force. Edited: Date (zero=no day): March 0, 1971 Factory: Fremont71 (the reason for the year is for sorting - I like how you guy's separate factory & year & this will do that. See example below if interested.) Year: 1971 Perhaps redundant if year is added to factory, but strikes me valuable as a sort option) Chevy/GMC (gay man's chevy): Chevy, Suburban etc. (See post 119, might be better to add Suburban, Blazers as a note or as another column to sort by, e.g. "Other"). Vin: Zxxxxxx (Not sure you need "Z" but it sorts anyway). Notes: 71Chevy402 is a bum Flint70 Flint71 Flint72 Fremont70 Fremont71 Fremont72 On a side, if using Excel for example, the shorter the better. Sometimes it's necessary to put columns between columns to paste right, using symbols. For example: 01/01/1970...Fremont70...1970...Chevy...Z123456...Blank*...71Chevy402 is a bum. *Blank is a spot for Suburban and that, because blanks will throw off your paste. N/A maybe, but it's not as if you're registering every type. Edited again, cough). The list of your factories/years and that is a nice placeholder so to speak, but I wouldn't add them to your chart until a truck comes up. Just some suggestions, I'm a bum but long edgeucation in data structure & reports was enough to be happy to leave, with CDO and perhaps PTSD too, them (*&(*)&^ are crazy especially meetings. Quote:
