Web Access Data Management Tool

Web Access Data Management Tool, or WADMT for short, is a dynamic, interactive application which makes displaying data on your website much simpler. No need to manually create or update the HTML necessary to display large amounts of tabular data; just create a relational database containing the data, and run through a multi-step web wizard that aids you in the creation of datasets (unique sets or groupings of related data), which can easily be queried by an interactive form. Results are retrieved from your database and displayed - automatically! The look of the dynamic webpage is modular, separate from the functionality, and therefore easily adjusted to meet customer preference.
