If I've got it right, then there is a program called Clooz http://www.clooz.com/ that has two versions available; runtime and standalone. Though she sells primarily through genealogical entities, vs major retailers, the concept is the same, that of having two versions. Hope this helps. -- Kathryn Bassett (Pasadena CA) http://www.databaseadvisors.com http://databaseadvisors.com/mailman/listinfo kathryn at bassett.net * http://bassett.net
