Default Programing

Spreadsheets are wonderful for doing calculations and showing graphs.
Databases are good for dealing with products, customers and quotes. With a
database you would have a list of products held in one table, your customers
held in another table and a third table linking customers and products
showing the quote date & price. Then it is very simple to show all the
quotations for each product or all the quotations that each customer has
recieved.
Investigate something like MS Access

I am looking for a programer to help us develope quoting software for our
company. We have several products that we quote on a regular basis. We
have
recently listed all products and options on a spread sheet hoping that it
is
a good first step to building a program. I have checked on line for
quoting
software and found that it is "canned" type software that is very limited.
I
have a dedicated staff in house that is willing to work with an outside
programer to build this program. I have a fairly clear picture of whta the
final software should do. I also have competitors software that is very
similar that may be helpful to review. If you are interested in workign
with
us please contact me .
