I need a programmer to develop a simple custom solution or process.
I have an Access Database with a large number of contacts (over 4000 w/names, addresses, city, state, and zip etc) some with email addresses and others that do not. The database has gotten large and some of the information is out of date.
I would like for a programmer to develop a simple solution that would allow me to send out a bulk email to all contacts in the database with an email address asking them to update/verify their contact information and request additional information, such as a Federal Tax ID number
I will need a simple way to update the database with their information once they email it back. I would prefer a custom form via excel or word in which we can publish the data to Access once I verify it.
Another solution would be to have a unique hyperlink to the intranet which loads the Contacts data and then they could update and save. Security would need to be addressed and will be an issue with this type of solution.
I am open to all ideas and recommendations.
