The reason why I have chosen Moodle/PHP/Mysql is that in the end captia has said they are going for a web based version of SIMS. So....I thought I would beat them to it!! lol
Interesting. A few years back Capita said they were going for a web-based interface; then they said that they were abandoning that and where going for what they called 'thin client' Unless you know something I don't about where Capita are going next? So what you have is a .net set of executables and you need to run them on a fairly up-to-date windows PC- which is actually a fairly fat client with no server, but with MSSQL data streams as 'thin' as they can manage. Not at all what they promised. I think now Microsoft own part of the company. I doubt that this would have had anything to do with the decision to go .net executables though ;) Derek -- ******************************************************************************** All mail sent and received may be examined to prevent transmission of unacceptable material.
