Hi all. I was wondering if anyone knows of a way to use MS Access or Excel to remind me of calibration dates.?
I need to track the calibration of gauges and tools. It seems that there must be a way to use Access or Excel or some other software to keep track of when tools were calibrated and to automatically remind me when the latest calibration date (month only is fine) has come to pass. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Jim

I used to do it for oil changes for a fleet.
You have to write a query and could do it by making it date sensitive. Then run the query and it will give you anything that needs to be calibrated again. It has been awhile since I have done it and my current job is causing me to lose my skills.

I'm sure it's possible but personally I use the Mozilla Thunderbird Calender app to remind me of all of my important dates. The reminders show up beside my work email so I know to follow up on those tasks then we use a simple excel spread sheet to track baseline process conditions.
Hope that helps.
