Hi Julie

To me it looks like all you need - both or all of you - is a digital certificate and mail clients at both ends that can apply and verify such certificates, which most major clients can do.
Verisign and Thawte (also Verisign) are examples of commercial (expensive) authorities, while CAcert is free and GeoTrust is cheap:

An alternative is to raise your workflow - which it is - to a higher level using dot net and Windows Workflow Foundation:

You will still need your certificates though.

Hi Everyone

Just a general question.  I have a deployed database with a back-end on a 
server in Access and the front end as an executable.

My customer uses this application as a Work Order database for my services 
as well as other work orders for other vedors.

The application e-mails me a work order when they want something done, we 
then get the work order signed when the work is complete.  This paperwork 
drives me nuts.

I'd like to take a pda with the e-mailed work order on it, sign it 
electronically myself, and have them sign it electronically as well, then 
store an electronic copy on both their system and mine.

Has anyone done this?
