Hello all!

These forums have been great and I have learned quite a bit from here. I have completed a few applications for our business - HR, Orders, and Inventory. We are a manufacturing company, and our inventory database needs something I am not able to find an answer to - mobile transactions on the manufacturing floor and inventory locations. Such as scanning the barcode and seeing stock levels as well as counting and removing from stock. Ideally, this would be live to our server - there's wifi everywhere.

I have thought of many options - just many do not seem ideal. I have a good knowledge of VBA, but I don't think I could create a vb.net windows mobile application at this point. Something else I saw was alpha software web application creator - is that any good without knowledge of xbasic? I'm fluent in versions of html and css, and just a tad of php.

The other option I see is using sharepoint with access 2010 web database and a mobile browser, but Can this be optimized for mobile? We would still like to keep the desktop app, though.

This issue is challenging me, and keeping me a bit frustrated. Does anyone have suggestions?

Thanks
 
So after a few days of some more research, I have decided to use Alpha Anywhere V12 to develop my application for an iPod touch. This seems like very well designed software - not to mention I can interface directly with an access database! So for any of you who may have this same dilemma I would seriously check out Alpha Software!
 
Hi Jerrywolf,
I am looking at something similar to this at the moment so would be interested to hear how you got on and any advice.
Cheers
