>>>>Now I'm curious ... is all your stuff (CAD, RMS, Mobile) all "home-grown"?

>>>CAD is from Intergraph (Oracle backend) and the RMS is Visionaire (SQL Server backend) and we also talk to some mainframes (Tandem/Honeywell/IBM). The county hosts the jail and courts apps on their mainframes. We just pull data from them.

>>I'm familiar with both of those vendors. So you basically just mine the data from the various databases. Sounds like fun!

>Pretty much. And VFP and West-Wind do a lot of the work. I'm moving toward C# in an app that will be up on our website some time within the next month. It uses ESRI mapping (I started this code with help from the ESRI conference last month) and Silverlight (C#). I love the way it renders so quickly, but I need more training on Silverlight. I don't suppose anyone knows of a place to get that, other than the videos I've been reviewing, as time permits.
