This wheel has been invented many times already. Save yourself some time and money and use an existing service: http://www.google.com/search?q=online+time+tracking Add up what your time will cost to develop a solution, double it because your estimate will almost certainly be too low, then double it again to cover maintenance for the first year, and compare that figure to what a SaaS solution will cost for one year. Unless your requirements are sufficiently different to that which already exists, or you want to develop this as a learning experience, grab a wheel off the shelf. -Stuart -- Stuart Dallas 3ft9 Ltd http://3ft9.com/
