texte = I am looking for direction here...When you have a shopping site, where the shoppers' information (name, address, etc.) are stored in a database... do most of you use the same fieldnames to match the orderfile or not? For example, in the account database, should I use shiptoaddress1 or should I use address1ship? I can see how using the same names would save confusion, but at the same time, I can see how it would create confusion... any feedback or opinion on this?Thanks, Kim------------------------------------------------------------- This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list .
