I have set up three accounts for the site, one contains a large budget so that you can see how it works when items are purchased, the next account is a small budget amount which isn't enough to purchase anything, and the third is a guest account which allows guests to purchase products using a credit card instead of an assigned budget.The link is http://mmiproserv.com/webcatalog/universal/index.tplThe large budget account: Username: bigmoney pass: testThe small budget account: Username: littlemoney pass: testand the guest account: Username: guest pass: guestIf anybody has feedback I would love to hear it.Thanks,Craig ForestOn Wednesday, February 5, 2003, at 12:12 PM, Donovan wrote:> I would have a maxpur field (or something) in the customer database. > Then you just > subtract from that value every time a person trys to purchase (and > write it back to the > database).
