Hi Hans, Thank you very much! I really appreciate your help.
Here's what I'm trying to do: I'm an independent sales person of sorts. I have a need for a really simple, flat database to enter potential sales and track the sales process. Your contacts example + the markthingsdone addons are my learning tools. The billing stuff and the contact manager that are on the test site right now are things that I'll use, but a simple sales tracking system is what I need right now. I took another/closer look at your contact application. There is, of course, the need to install fox forms, fox edit and fox delete. The contact application itself, though, is comprised of four files (as per http://www.pmwiki.org/wiki/Cookbook/FoxContacts ). Here is what I *think* I need to do if I am going to create a new group called SalesOpportunities along with custom forms. Contacts.php: provides permissions and also the "delete if empty" code. I need to add a line in the middle for the new group. Contacts.Contacts will be a new page such as SalesOpportunities.SalesOpportunities, and I need to modify the pagelist command. Contacts.NewContact is the form for data entry (and editing?) So that form needs to be modified by adding new fields and so forth. It also needs to be moved to SalesOpportunities.NewOpportunity. Contacts.ContactTemplates will become SalesOpportunities.SalesTemplates and will need to be modified to match the above two forms. As far as the edit links are concerned, I'll need to go back through "recent changes" and see what you've done to modify (I think) the template file in Contacts.NewContacts. The edit feature is something I do want to have in the "database", but its not the first priority. Am I on the right track?
