Well at this point I have demoed a program called The Dispenser 13 written with FileMaker by a programmer/doctor but it was not as user-friendly as I wanted.
So I gave Dymo LabelWriter 8 a shot. Tried it on two Windows machines and the same bug/issue came up that wouldn't allow me to properly prepare a label.
Like I mentioned earlier, my priority was - and now its the only one - to have a solution/program to print the medicine label to stick over the bottle....simple enough just so that we don't have to handwrite it.
I was hoping to do this in Excel where I already have a spreadsheet of our medicine and qty etc. but either my knowledge of excel or Excel itself is too limited to accomplish that.
So I am trying to learn some basic Access to create a small database of our medicines, patients, and sigs to be able to print this out to the Dymo labels. From a couple friends of mine that unfortunately dont know any more Access than I do, it seems like the way to go. If anybody knows of an easier method please help me!
