I know that this is a little off-track, but I thought that I would take
advantage of the fact that most of the people on this list (or maybe all)
are in academic settings.  I need to find a piece of software that can be
used to schedule rooms or resources.  Either a stand-alone app or a plug-in
to something like Access or Excel.

Thanks,

Jim McKay

I have started using WorkTime from TimeDomain to schedule my student
employees. WorkTime also allows you to schedule resources and rooms (as a
resource).  You can give your resources attributes, such as "handicap
accessible", "holds up to 200 people", "audio/visual equipment", etc.  You can
also specify what times it is available for use, such as 8-5 Monday through
Friday.  It's a GUI product in a Mac version and a Windows version.  The
company is just getting started, so there are a few bugs here and there
(nothing major), but the support is GREAT. Here is how to reach them:
          Time Domain, Inc.
          18 Garfield Court
        Gaithersburg, MD 20882
          301-253-7169 (voice)
        301-990-8790 (fax)
          timedomain@aol.com
There is a 30-day money back guarantee.

I found out about WorkTime from this discussion list to help schedule my 30+
lab assistants and it has been great. I don't personally deal with scheduling
rooms, but there is a sample database that comes with WorkTime that shows how
to set it up for rooms and I am suggesting it to some of our staff here at
Baylor.

Hope that helps!
