>Thanks Craig. In fact, I have looked at this sample since Phase 1 and yes there are some good stuff in it. Just as a side note, every time I run the app, I can't stop thinking to myself: as great as VB is for UI, how come this app's UI is sooooo ugly! Is this best MS can do with VB UI? :)

I think it's a case of spending time on the techniques for n-tier development rather than the gui.
