Luther et all, I have finally decided that OA will not really work well for a
contractor based business and am converting to a competitive product. BCM has
similar problems. to may way of hinking the Opportunity should be used during
the prospecting stage of a sale and then the information gathered from that
process converted to a project after the contract is signed. From there there
should be billable tasks that can be added to the project and invoicing done
with those tasks as the line items in the invoice. If MS was really on the
ball that invoice would be integrated into OA. However, as I said before OA
is a mangled mess and going that far is way more than we'll get at least in
the near future. Jim
