I'm not all that keen on web interfaces; as far as I can see, from my limited and reluctant experience of writing them, the programming languages are poor and debugging is a nightmare. I was thinking on the lines of glade + Python or Eiffel. However the underlying database structure should be the same, and I would insist on putting all the consistency rules into the database (triggers, foreign keys, etc.) so you could possibly have two different interfaces to the same database. -- Oliver Elphick [EMAIL PROTECTED] Isle of Wight http://www.lfix.co.uk/oliver GPG: 1024D/A54310EA 92C8 39E7 280E 3631 3F0E 1EC0 5664 7A2F A543 10EA ======================================== "Love is patient, love is kind.
