Need help with this project

[Amritha Ganga]

Hi Friends,

I am working on this entirely new project whic is maintaining my company's information management systrem(IMS). If "office" is selected as location of appointment, system should auto-populate the address than someone having to type it in.

There is already an existing system and I have to make this particular change to it... How do I go about this ?

It would be really really great if anyone could give me pointers to where I should be making the change and all...

Thank you friends..I will wait for your replies..

Amritha,
The first step is to understand the layers of the application. Clearly, you need to update the front end. Do you have all the data available to make that change? Or do you need to retrieve data from the back end too?

amritha you should start with unserstanding requirement first. then after making few documwnts regarding functionality you can start with development. For that you need to decide technologies and diferent framework that can make your life easier. If you will follow SDLC then it would be very much easier for you to complete project in easier manner. You can take my help if you want.

Welcome to JavaRanch, Patel Chintan

I presume SDLC means Systems Development Life Cycle.
