Personally, I would use Visual Basic(WIN) causeit is far easier to make it an EXE file than if you were using ACCESS.  In ACCESS you would have to export it into FOXPRO in order to make it EXE.  Your other option would be to use access, but ensure that every machine that it will be running on has a copy of Access on it in order for your program to run.  Trust me, Use VB(WIN), much less stress.

If you need any help, drop me a line in this directory.

I am interested in this product that was mentioned VB(DOS).  If some one could send me an address as to where I can get an order form it would be most appreciated.  leave it in here.
