ONLY he does not want an actual store. He would just like the customer to have the ability create the print, print it or email it. He does not sell to the everyday customer he only sells to dealers and accepts their PO's. Here are 2 examples...only these examples have stores... http://www.paulconwayshields.com/sto...ld_builder.asp http://www.thefirestore.com/store/bu...aa8b6d51307cTR Any advice on how to create this? Any input would be great. Sue

Is that somewhere along the lines of what you're looking for...or the customer is looking for? Sounds like it might be a tricky thing to accomplish. I'd love to hear what others say about this. Best wishes! Kathya Emerald Virtual Solutions

It's a doozy For some reason, my mind is only thinking that setting up a store in Zen Cart or something is the solution. Maybe that is a Flash script that allow that functionality. Sue

Maybe I'm not understanding though - he wants people to be able to create these templates as if they were for production but then just print them out as an image? __________________ Create a welcome packet for new clients with this guide and free templates!

I agree. It is programming. I can't think of an easy way to get this done. Thanks Tess. If you think of something or run across something let me know And I will do the same Sue
