>Most of the big inventory programs now go by the name of Warehouse Management Systems. They sit on Corporate Iron, and pass information to line users who access it for pick/pack/store applications. Unless you are looking at a specific piece of the process, you might want to look at as a bunch of modules.'

Thanks for the info. I have very little info on the system itself, other than a VFP app using wireless hand helds for bar code scanning. I'm just trying to do some research so I can understand some of the terminologies and logic involved in inventory control. A quick search on "Warehouse Management Systems" on google has turned up quite a bit of reading for me. Thanks.
