Change of direction

Ok, got convinced that this would be hard. Talked to the boss and he seemed to agree with my temporary strategy of doing a simple autosave and saving this stuff till the back end resdesign.

It's funny. I am so worn out that I can't help but sound sarcastic. I was trying to tell him that I was looking forward to redesigning the backend but I sounded really sarcastic even thought I really am looking forward to the challenge.

So why is what I was trying to do hard? One was a flawed approach on my part. I tried to take a series of tables that may or may not exist for an order and turn them into a big, flat session state. Unfortunately that still seems to make a lot of sense to me. I am slowly working towards having a set of tables in the data set. Yeah, 5 tables.

I think the basic problem is that you would need to change the database schema (albeit not in vast ways) and write numerous stored procedures. It would take some time and I want to get this stuff pushed forward and start to work on the back end.
