This was all to keep it simple for FedEx or UPS or DHL to get data to fill
out the shipping data for an order at the shipping station.  They scan
barcode on the pick list, it passes that # to my views for header data on
where this is going.  At completion the write to my table weight, fee1,
fuel surcharge, other fee2, and tracking number.     I marry that to the
order on a nightly batch that sends all data up to website.  This has been
in place for 10+ years.

All this took was an ODBC connection on the shipping station to the DBC
that held the views SEPARATE from the dbf files on the server.  I think
this is a good use of views for an app.

Now they want to do same process for other company they started in same
warehouse on a different belt.
