Nilesh,

Sorry, off the top of my head I don't have any helpful links bookmarked. Check places like www.gotdotnet.com or www.dotnetjunkies.com or www.c-sharpcorner.com .... they may have helpful stuff.

As for reporting, maybe Crystal Reports ... they have a .NET version. I haven't played with it yet, but one of the guys on our team started messing with it a few weeks ago.

>thanks bonnie,
>sounds too easy to break into multiple tiers and resue in browser and desktop appls. I'll give it a try, can you suggest any helpful link/sample for this approach??
>one thing you missed to touch is the reporting part, which is very crucial for finance appl. what tool to use?? and how to integrate the reporting tier with other tiers.
