Release 1

This release of M.E.R.S featured the following:
A basic graphical user interface for the user to enter an error incident, the user can navigate through the application by using next and back buttons. Most of the data could be selected from drop down boxes or by selection radio button or check boxes depending on which screen the user is currently on.
Once the user has filled in all the relevant data they receive a confirmation screen at which time they can review their entries and choose whether to submit the error or they may choose to go back and edit their entries.

From the main menu the user could select the Admin Login(reports) button and are taken to a report generation centre, here they can select a report to view, in this release a very basic report was generated for the user to see that they can view data in the database.

Release 1 stores its data to an Access 97 database, that can either be located on the local hard drive or may be installed on the network drive.
