<p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:12.0pt'>Why are you talking
about rewriting the whole app? <br>
If there is no further need then to expose Order Status to the customer, just
expose that information from the existing database towards the web.<br>

(among many things, LOL) is how to go about doing that! What suggestions do you
have?<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:12.0pt'>In that case you will have a
very well contained problem area an you can focus on learning to write a web
app (intraweb is a good way to go) without having to cope with all kinds of
other new issues you would have rewriting the whole app.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:12.0pt'>Yes - this is indeed the case,
and it is specifically the license for MySQL - you sell a product with MySQL in
it, you have to pay for it. Oracle won't get you get away without it :-)<o:p></o:p></p>
