Thanks Pete. I've done this in the past, running an online game that generated software codes (a Rev stack generated a unique serial number based on an incoming email rule). It's a bit fragile, but there is a benefit of having all your processing technologies (email rules, LiveCode stacks, etc) local. In fact, it just occurred to me I have a few spare computers here so I could have a system devoted solely to order processing. Thanks for jogging my thinking about this option. Will still investigate PHP scripts as well.
