Hi guys I need to ask you a quesiton, we are trying to do away with having Access as the front end of our databases. We would like to go web, where would you suggest I start looking. This has become my project and I was hoping you guys had some ideas

Are you asking what programming language we'd suggest? If so, then if you are comfortable with the Microsoft languages, I'd go with ASP.NET and C#.

Depending on the complexity of your system you could also look in to Ruby on Rails. Never used it myself but it claims to be the easiest in the business to learn...

Are you asking for a consulting company to write one for you or did you just want to purchase a third party application?

There are thousands of third party applications out there. We can't provide any kind of feedback unless you tell us what the application is supposed to do and even then we may not know of a third party application that does it already for you.

Well we were looking for something that handels gaming licensing, see we are the gaming commisison for a casino. We would need something thats like a Human Resources system minus the payroll section. That's also customizeable also. I would just have to look around and see what I can find

I don't have any experience with that type of application, so I'm unable to provide any kind of recommendation.
