Thanks Jim.  This sounds like a very logical approach.
I can handle the Access code for automating the email each week, but am
a bit foggy on the timer routine.  Any way of sending sample code??

Thanks.

If you are going to go the Excel route I would
1) Create an Excel template formatted properly with sheet and/or
workbook
protection. I usually create a hidden sheet in the template linked to
the
user input form. This is the sheet I read back into the database.
2) Populate the individual templates with an Access routine
3) Automatically email the workbook to users
4) Have the users email the completed workbook back to you.
5) I have an attachment save addin in Outlook that saves attachments to
a
specified directory.
6) Have an Access form with a timer routine that periodically reads all
files in the save directory and loads the data from the workbook into
Access. The routine renames the files and moves them to a completed
directory

Thanks Drew.  I agree that posting a web page would ideal, but I don't
have access to a web server, or even a file sharing server for that
matter.  I am at a client site, with limited resources.
I'm starting to think that just sending an Excel file for the user to
update should meet our needs.

It would be far easier to just send the end users a 'link' in email,
that
would open a webpage with the data they are to review/modify.  Fairly
easy
to do in asp.  Just a thought.
