I see an app created for debug in 3 days time frame at International Paper. It takes the a week to make mock ups that we just mimic in code generation templates. Granted it's all web based, all stored procedure driven for data, as well as the data layout, triggers, and all 3 tier defined with bizObjects that not only verify the data is as we want it, but it also delivers messages back up to the UI when something stupid happens. We follow the CSLA framework (free). You can see 2 videos about it on DNR tv: http://www.lhotka.net/weblog/DNRTVOnCSLANET20.aspx Stephen Russell DBA / .Net Developer Memphis TN 38115 901.246-0159 "A good way to judge people is by observing how they treat those who can do them absolutely no good." ---Unknown http://spaces.msn.com/members/srussell/ -- No virus found in this outgoing message.
