where to get a recruitment database for Ubuntu

Hi Andy,
are you looking for a fully built off the shelf recriutment management system for ubuntu? or the tools/basic software required to build such a system?

We are looking for an off the shelf system, or tools that are very easy to
use. For example I have built a very simple recruitment database, in the
past, sing Apple Works. However, it is only useful on one machine. I
need it to be available to 3 or 4 machines. I do not have IT programming
skills and want simple idiot proof solution.

Thanks

Andy T

openoffice.org base is the thing you are looking for.
The following wiki provides you with a tutorial on how to do what you might have done with Apple Works earlier.

http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/A_club_membership_database

To make sure that it can be accessed from multiple PC, you would have to create a database file that connect to a HSQL DB server running on one of the PC's as opposed to an embedded HSQL DB connection (in the section http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/A_club_membership_database#Create_the_database_file)

Hope this helps!
