Edward,
I think you're short changing yourself.  I don't know what you mean by "state gross receipts tax."  However, where I live, the general rule is that what you charge is at least double (sometimes more) the salary of the person.  This includes those items like taxes, building costs, equipment maintenance and purchase and supplies, etc.  I would charge between $75 and $100 per hour without feeling guilty.  Depending on the location I would probably charge additional travel expenses.

 This looks like a doable project.

 I have done a lot of this type of work.

 Is this a site that can be driven to by car ?

 A project like this could command any where
 from $25 to $35 dollars per hour plus expenses
 and state gross receipts tax.

Subject: [AccessD] Migrate 2.0 and A97 to XP: Advice and Cost???

Hello All,

A small company needs to have some Access DBs upgraded from Access 2.0 and
A97 to XP.

They want to provide airfare and hotel...and pay hourly.

The project will involve upgrading, some system functionality modifications,
and some new reports.  Some of their current functionality is "broken" (all
the detail they had).

Any suggestions to the approach, things to look out for in the migration, or
any advice?

Also, what would be considered a fair hourly rate?

Thanks,

Mark A. Matte
