This is just a modification of a contact database. Nearly every PHP & MySQL beginners tutorial starts with a simple contact database which you can modify to suit. I'd really advise actually learning a bit of this stuff, rather than grabbing something pre-built. End of the day, nothing will have *exactly* the features you need (now, or the future), and learning a little about the two languages will help you build the meeting room program, which no harder to build than the contact database. I think phpbuilder.net, sitepoint.com, phpbeginner.com and a few others are bound to have something you should use as a starting point. > Lastly, we could use something to keep track of our workflow program > otherwise referred to as a strategic plan. Workflow IS a more complex application. Have a look around at places like sourceforge.net for simular applications. Again, having a little bit of knowledge from your work with contact database and meeting room schedules will help you to modify these apps to suit.
