    The application has to be downloaded to the user's computer before the user can run it, which is a bad idea, since the user could be running Linux, a Mac or a pocket PC, which wouldn't be able to run the app. And, if the web server isn't running Windows (most of them run Linux), the app couldn't run there either.
    The most difficult part of developing a program is understanding the problem.
    The second most difficult part is deciding how you're going to solve the problem.
    Actually writing the program (translating your solution into some computer language) is the easiest part.
    Please indent your code and use [HIGHLIGHT="VB"] [/HIGHLIGHT] tags around it to make it easier to read.
