Ken, Bottom line, not enough **serious** interest here. I'm about 15-20 hours into my "QuickBooks Class Build", and it's going OK, not nearly as fast as I hoped but then again I'm just one guy.... Good Luck!!

Anyone game? I would like to be included as well. I don't know how much help I can be, but my partner and I just met with a potential new client and found out that they use Quickbooks for their inventory tracking. We are to put a proposal together that will integrate a revamped web site that will include a knowledgebase, online purchasing (which part will need to interact with Quickbooks) and some other options. After our first meeting, I quickly came back and grabbed the list of emails for this string from my deleted items so that I could see what everyone was saying.

Anyone game? Christopher, I guess there are about 75 VB examples in the SDK (3.0). All of which are as seamless as the next as far as I have played with (there just a pain to work with). It is really easy to see this for yourself if you have QuickBooks 2002 or above.. The problem is, there are no (none that I can find at least) complete sophisticated solutions that are under 500.00. I have tried the coreObjX dll, but that thing is a nightmare to even get registered on the users machines (even their own install routine will not register 9 time out of 10), the other (AcctSync) solutions I found is about 1K, so it's out of my price range. What I'm hoping (going) to build is a class based solution based on the QBFC. So in the end I will end up with a solution that will allow for portability, and very easy communications with QB. The solution will do all the "grunt" work under the hood automatically, and allow me to send and interpret QB requests very easily. It's not easy working with QB's API, and I would have like to made it an open source kind of thing, but I was hoping for at least 5 serious developers to join in.
