Access Inventory Application

G

Glen SIdelnikov

I am looking for the information to find an Access based raw materials stock
inventory manufacturing application.
Ideally shareware and/or freeware; should include source code and thus, be
highly customizable.
Any help is greatly appreciated.

Mike, your message is showing that you are unfamiliar with the topic.
Sorry, not trying to be rude, just a fact.

Apologies accepted.
All of the Pick and Access applications I wrote that dealt with raw
materials were of a very special nature
That just mean that you didn't write enough.
Besides, stop wasting your time by picking on me.
If you can't help - do not respond.

Then I must apologize for not being familiar with the issues.

How ever if you are correct a Google search should yield thousands of them.

I suspect you are not familiar with the topic

There are some at the Access based Accounting page at my website. One
of them is free "for small manufacturers located within the state of
Georgia."

Otherwise expect to pay.

As Mike states why would someone spends thousands of hours working on
an app and make the source code freely available for anyone to use
without payment?

I always repeat after Einstein : "Ignorance is a syster of stupidity."

1. With over 20 years of "writing" experience, I do not need advices from
succers like you. When I started to "write" like you call it, you were a
baby (and you still are).

2. I have found what I was looking for. If you would need any advice, feel
free to ask professionals.

3. To my surprise, I'have found your response only to my question. Your
response is rather unprofessional and ignorant than coming from anybody who
knows what is he talking about. Coincidence? Lack of knowledge? Like I said
in my previous message :"Probably you didn't write enough..". Looks like I
was right...

4. Your correspondence becoming really childish picking. Barking on someone
you don't know is not the best way to learn, baby.

Which Einstein is that? Certainly not Albert (he didn't say that - and *he*
could spell, too).

Thank you for proving my point.

What point? That you couldn't conduct a search on your own?

By the way, what is it that you "write"? I only ask because I know that Don
Rickles has pretty much retired.

Bruce,

1. Read carefully the thread
2. I requested a particular information from the people that experienced the
same problem as me. I want to evaluate MRP software that is a shareware.
3. The responces I received so far are varied from:
" I do not think it is possible..."
"Write it on your own..."
"Thousands of hours of work..."
to "arrogant ass".
4. You can definetely have your own opinion about me. As long as you are not
working for me (thanks god) - I do not care. However, it was my opinion that
this forum is build in intension to answer the questions! If you do not have
answers - do not bother to waste my time (as well as yours).
5. In my previous message I wrote that this conversation thread is a waste
of time. Indeed. Your responces are the same and simply proving my point.
Why wouldn't you answer all other questions like you answered mine? Simply
write: read Access help; microsoft site; find it yourself on the yahoo. That
kind of response required a lot of knowledge; takes a minimal amount of
time, so that you will be able to continue to read Einstein. May be you will
find the phrase I wrote (May be not :))
6. Do not bother to respond. I have found what I am looking for from other
forum.

Glen,
I have been away from my office for a while and my newsreader has chopped
off some of the earlier posts in this thread (methinks I had one of the
settings too small). However, I do think that, if you are wanting to find
shareware MRP software, you will probably search in vain. I work with MRP
software and know how complicated it is. If someone takes the time to create
a GOOD MRP application they are not going to give it away.

Lynn,
was it your sample posted on the Arvin's page?
Once again, shareware does not mean free.
I am looking for the evaluation copy of the MRP software. Something like an
open source SDK. I want to evaluate the solution and if it fits my needs -
will buy it.
Finally, MRP is a very logical set of applications. I have found a whole
bunch of them. Unfortunately, there are very few suggested as an open source
(i.e. sold with the source code).
I wrote my own MRP over 5 years ago using Access 2 with VB4, but it is
definitely not a satisfactory solution (since it is very industry oriented)
:)
All I am asking is to get a link to the software that is:

- available for evaluation (i.e. shareware either with the time limitation
or code accesslimitation)
- not expensive (less than $5K)
- highly customizable (open source or sold with source code)
- preferable using Access database

Bruce, read your message and <plonk> yourself.
So far, you have been rude, cynical and unprofessional.

For what you are looking for shareware does mean free. While demo's
will be happily handed out no one is going to allow people to have
access to their source code without paying for it.

Evaluation copies may be multiple, but evaluation copies with source code
will be virtually impossible to find. Companies are not likely to let you
have access to their source code unless you have already purchased the
software.

All I am asking is to get a link to the software that is:

- available for evaluation (i.e. shareware either with the time limitation
or code accesslimitation)
- not expensive (less than $5K)
- highly customizable (open source or sold with source code)
- preferable using Access database

Again, it's just not likely that you will ever be able to find that for
something as complicated, expensive and time-consuming to develop as MRP
software.
