The reason I joined this newsgroup, and tried out the dem o version of WebCatalog was because we want to set up a little online shoppi ng corner on our system.The WebCatalog advertising clearly says it does invoices and totals. I sent e-mail pointing this out to Pacific Coast (actually twice now) about this, b ut they have not replied.I really do like Pacific Coast software. And the staff and support at Pacifi c Coast has always been very helpful and forthcoming. In *this* particular c ase, though, I think they should offer the invoices and totals feature, sinc e it is advertised that way, instead of telling people to buy other software , which they may not need, in order to use features that are purported to be available in the less-expensive software.I am still undecided about what system to order to handle our online shoppin g corner. But I don't want to feel like I have to ask is this advertised fe ature really a working feature? for every feature....Doug Lerner, Tokyo doug@inJapan.net
