Another division of the company has used IconAuthor to make a photo database. Our department is considering doing something similar, possibly with different tools. We have the idea that IconAuthor, which works fine, is expensive and loaded with features we don't need (such as support for video clips). The idea is to create a system for retrieving and displaying digital photos, organized in a table of contents of different areas, to be distributed on CD. I wonder how such a system might be made in vfp, and how well it would compare with one made with IconAuthor or some other specialized software.
