    It'd be funny if it wasn't so serious....

    I was looking at this thread http://www.vbforums.com/showthread.php?t=654269 (OP wants the code for an Inventory Accounting System).

    Yesterday on the News I heard that our Ministry of Defence as 'lost' £6.3Bn worth of spare parts. A spokesman was quoted as saying that they weren't lost, it was just that they "didn't know where they were". Perhaps if OP manages to find some code, he could let our Government know.

    That reminds of a Yes Minister episode.
