Probably, but my guess is that you'd find better choices in Word than in
Access. For a meeting, how many types of things do you want to
record??? When I'm the secretary, I usually just use Notepad to write
down whatever happens, with time stamps, and organize it later.

Now, if you wanted to use Access to *organize* the activities, such as
who proposed and seconded each motion, the motion title, the time it
passed, the voting results, etc., that might make sense. But I haven't
seen a template like that. You might consider using Access's Table
Wizard, maybe looking at "Tasks" or "Projects" or "Events" for
suggestions about fields to include in the table. There's no law
against combining sample fields from more than one of these categories.
