Steaming ahead isn't always the best idea
I have steamed ahead and therefore forgot to normalise my database; having now normalised it I have to alter some of the forms that I have already made and alter the tables. I have finished my sub-areas, done as much of the tables as I can at the moment, I am waiting on content, and I have egun to create the form; overall I am a few days ahead of schedule but I'm sure once the content arrives those days will be used up. No tasks are overdue but there have been some changes to the plan as it was discovered that there was a better way of searching for parts that I hadn't thought of and having talked about this with my client he has made it more clear exactly which parts he wants in his database. The changes that I have made to the database are that instead of the parts being displayed all by different brands and types; the parts will now be searched for using a query in order to locate the parts that are required. I have communicated with the client at our meeting and show him the progress so far, he is pleased with how things are progressing and he has also given me the laptop that he will be using so that I can check the compatability; if the compatability is okay I may do the remainder of the creation on that laptop so that I know it will work when he comes to use it.
