your client will not order more then one item at a time then you can do it all

I am not sure where this ended, but if you think about a "shopping cart"
for a moment, it is just a temporary table.

If you combine West-Wind, some fox programming skill, a little html
skill for pretty graphics, and look at (copy) Rick's code to automate
the credit card authorizations, you can get there on your own.

As the customer is ordering, fill the temporary table or fill one table
where one of the fields is their Session ID on the web server.  Then, as
they go from page to page, just requery the table.

Get a security certificate, so you can make the credit card page an
HTTPS secured page, and you are all set.

Then add a nightly routine to delete information from the table that is
older than 2 days, and you have the application.

Then, if the data and the application are on your web-servers, you can
automate the order further into other systems within your company.

Just a thought, from one programmer to another....
