Actually never made anymore progress. I'm a merchant marine, and I'm only at home about a month at a time then go back out again. Since I've been back this time I've been working on some other things. But I would still like to move ahead on that if you have any answers for me. I'm very new at this and today have been trying to find out some more about php and mysql. I wish there were simple walk thru instructions out there but it just isn't that easy! As far as the estore, I was trying to find out how to set up a database for dropshipped products on my site.

I'm here

I don't know what your budget is like but I've heard you can get some cheap scripting done by rentacoder.com and elance.com.

If you want to get an idea of what php and mySQL are about go to w3schools.com which has a good enough amount of information to get you going. It uses a lot of examples but explanations are on the slim side.

It's definitely not easy but if you can parse through the information it'll give you more options later on. Understanding those languages will also help you evaluate a coder's end product - to a certain extent.

It's like being back in school again...
