"A-Level Computing Project..."

I know some of you did A-Level Computing, and I'm having trouble deciding on my database project for this years coursework. Now i dont know if you guys had the same project or not. But we've been set the task of creating a 'complex' database for some sort of organisation. Some examples given to us were, Estate Agents, Insurance Companies, and a Travel Agents, but aside from that the only other idea I have is for some sort of Medical Establishment. So I was wondering if anybody could give me any ideas, or tips in general. Thanks in advance...

Blasphemy!

We can do it in any language we like! Although college only has Access installed so we have the same resources :\

Jeez, if you have to do a DATABASE project, then do it. If you mean you can't think up of something to base the database on, then god help you... you have less imagination than any...thing.

Problem is we can only use Visual Basic/ Access, due to our crappy school...

Exactly what I asked, but I have absolutely no idea as what to do, or that could be in some way complex...

Speaking of Computing projects, what you reckon I should do for my A2 computing coursework?

I've heard it could be anything we wanted.

Another year, another ones of these posts. Just read the friggin specs and do 'em.

God, I remember A level computing, using that crappy programme Basic. I did my project on a golf club and its members.

Last year we did Todd's Tyres, this year we can do anything we want, but it has to be used in a company, which is crap.

Complex Database for web-sites (You could create a database driven site).

School Records...?

Eh?

My A2 computing project can be anything we want!

It's not like last year where we got a set task (Tods Tyres)
