I'm creating a forum where my users will be able to download reports pertaining the individual and then be able to ask questions to the admins. There are over 100 reports that we produce every few months, and rather than create links to them (they are pdfs) individually, I would like to be able to run a program or something to generate the links, and also generate a post for each user with a password the will need to view their report. Users would also only be able to see their reports and their folders which would contain the posts pertaining to them. I'm using an Access database and I'm sure that I could create a module or something that would update the forum tables. I suppose what I would need to know is exactly which fields in the forum tables need to be created or updated. Is there some sort of documentation that says what each field in each table represents? Thanks.
I'm not looking to create a web based application to do this, although I'm certainly not ruling that out if one already exists. I was thinking more of creatng a module in Access which would update the tables used by the forum. I really just need to understand how the forum tables work, which fields are required, and what the data in each of them means. If there is some documentation available it would save me a lot of trouble of having to look through all of the forum code, and more importantly of missing something important that could potentially cause problems with my forum.
