Help With Assignment Scheduling

[bal1]

Hi guys for a uni assignment i am having to make a scheduling program that allocates cars into free servicing bays with free mechanics. now i know this would involve loops and nested loops. the data is saved in an access file and so it needs to check that there is a free date, mechanic and bay free to add the record to the database to store.
Could some one provide me with some articles to read up on that would aid me in this, i have had a search of this forum for any help but i couldnt find any on this particular problem.

Finding something specific to cars and mechanics will be hard. For data access help, click the DW1 link in my signature and have a read.

For the main part of your algorithm, i really would recommend a pen and paper approach first.. Write your logic out in english (or your native language) then translate it to VB. Weeks of coding can save you hours of planning!
