Easy question, Please help the newb :)

I have open office.org, and ms access, also a trial of Filemaker. I have something i need to do that i believe should be quite simple but i can't figure it out.

I do computer repair and would like to have a one stop place to store customer info, along with every job I've done within the customer info. I would prefer if i could set it up to where i could click on the users name, and enter data about what work was done, what it costs, and print invoices and such. I didn't know if this was easy to setup with either of these programs. Any help would be appreciated Thanks in advance.

I'm not really sure what you're asking but I think you want to know what 'tool' you should use to create a customer db and billing program. MS Access can do all of that for you and it is designed so that most people can figure out how to do it themselves. Get an Access book and read up on database fundamentals.

Have fun!
