Pushing FrontPage to do more...

Guest

I am using FrontPage 2002, Office 2002 and Windows XP. For my mystery
shopping business, I have a number of stores that need to be visited per
month (can be in the hundreds). Shoppers sign up for assignments, visit,
then submit their reports on a web form. At present, there is a lot of email
communication and time spent with these shoppers about what stores to shop
and when. I want to set up a system whereby a pool of eligible shoppers is
asked to visit a web site with the assigments listed so that in effect the
shoppers assign themselves instead of me telling them. When a store has a
shopper, then other shoppers cannot pick that store. Also I want the system
to email the shopper and remind her to visit the store a day before the
shopping date. Can I create such a system without any fancy programming? If
not, what kind of programmer would I need to hire to assist me?

You would have to create custom database application using server-side scripting which would be
based on what is supported by your web host, such as ASP, ASP.net, PHP, CFM.

No, it would require alot of "fancy programming".

A programmer versed in whatever server side scripting language your server
supports would be required (ASP, .net, php, perl etc).
