>>I was bummed that noone knew of any accounting packages available that have been written in a commerical framework like Visual FoxExpress or ProMatrix. It seems to me that I'm not the only developer who wants to tackle a vertical market product and integrate it with a general accounting package. If one of the frameworks offered an accounting module, I think it would lean developers towards choosing that framework as a development tool. Just my opinion!

I can't say what the vertical market is yet, but it definately needs to integrate with an accounting package. IAS Accounting saw this thread and contacted me last week. They said that their own framework is available for developers. I'm waiting for a demo of the accounting package so I can see how it looks and feels.

Anybody familiar with IAS and have any comments -- good or bad? I checked out their website but it doesn't appear that they have a Payroll module. Anybody know if this is true or not? An accounting package WITHOUT a Payroll module is INCOMPLETE in my book!
