Robert,
FWIW, buyer beware.
$8/hr developers? You get what you pay for. Not that I think off-
shore development is bad, quite the contrary, but it requires more
hands-on work from you or a project manager to get things done
correctly.

As to the 8$ an hour or so for coding this would be an offshore
project. I have some developers and project manager connections to
help me describe and plan this project.
7K$ for this modification? I can’t even think about spending that
kind of money right now. I don’t know what that kind of money looks
like yet, hence the reason why I have to learn CF.
Cust data privacy I won’t give it to them. I can copy the DB and
dump the content of that table. They only need access to product
tables, and vendor spreadsheets. What can they do with that?
As it is now I think that Im going to add separate tables and just
have the Able Products prices populated from the other tables that
Able is not aware of. This seems the easiest way to keep Able from
writing on top of important info during an upgrade. I think I
FINALLY (bet you all are glad to hear that!) on the right path.
Thanks all for the direction and as I said above I am getting
control of what it is I really need and the ability to define it.
Wow what a leaning curve this has been so far!

Wow. Robert just in case you have not figured it out by now the
pages that were causing the problems are most likely those that you
posted on this list a week or so back. I can’t remember them now ,
but they were posted here. That should help you if this is still
an issue.
As to the mention of several dollar an hour coders, you will get
what you pay for there. And naturally you can offshore the
development but you are not guaranteed a level of service or the
privacy of your customer data etc.
I think Several hundred thousand dollars seems a bit much for the
project you are speaking of, however I do not think that several
thousand dollars would be out of the question. You have a fairly
complex set of requirements, and you do not or did not have a full
set of requirements. You need to fully document the requirements
and how you expect the new application to interact with
ablecommerce and then decide how that interaction should be developed.
Once this is done it might point you or a developer in the right
direction. I see too often where I work now, that certain groups
attempt to build a boat only to find out they needed something that
could fly.

Subject: [ACFUG Discuss] Table reconstruction. Able Commerce
This is a new thread as a continuation from one a while back that
is all revolving around the same issues I am having with trying to
get the tables in Able Commerce moved around.
http://forums.topsites.com/viewtopic.php?t=3623
will catch you up to speed.
The topic changes on response 5 from JMESTEP and really does a good
job of describing what is needed for me in the interest in getting
this cart working like my business model requires.
This is mostly an exercise in planning a modification, or a new app.
Those that feel that they can help please read this thread and
reply either to that thread or in here with your perspectives.
I have reason to believe that custom code and an app external to
Able Commerce could solve my problems.
Please I beg for direction.
