[OPLINTECH] Useful tool for trainers and developers [Bill Hudgins]

[Bill]

Hi Tech people:
If you offer training on EXCEL, ACCESS, or any of the SQL versions and haven't seen this utility, you'll be intrigued.  It's freeware at   http://www.snapfiles.com/get/datamaker.html and its function is to generate fake (or at least random) data for spreadsheets and databases.  It does a nearly-perfect job (except for some cases where you can tell that there's one too many commas in the source data), but you there's no limit to the number of records, so you can toss out the wrong ones, or you can teach people how to fix 'em up.

Fascinating... could save hours for the trainers out there.


Cheers!
