hello!
well here I go now with another program, this is a self proyect for helping all those accounters (such as my mom) out there battling with lousy programs.
I know there might be some very good programs out there that do all that is needed, but there's nothing like a house built according to your needs and likes right?
ok, to the point:
I plan the program to allow the use of 'codes' for the clients of the current company (it will manage just one company at a time [for the time being at least]), so that it will be easier and faster to store/retrieve information.
i.e. "A001" instead of "Andy McMillian Jr"
well according to the needs: each client Will have many (if not a lot of) bills, each bill
will have information such as (
Bill Number,
Date,
Sub-Total,
Total,
Taxes*, and if it is
Paid already or not*2
[*:in my country the taxes are paid at the moment you buy something, some items might not pay taxes.
*2:Some companies allow credit (not like credit cards, but like trust credit)]
for this A001 would have many info to manage.
I have thought of making dinamyc arrays for each client, because new clients will show up
[so the program will have another option: "Add Client"]
so AddClient() will add the name and code to a file.
Later the user can add more (bill number, Date,...etc).
For making this idea clear, the screen might look like this:
Name:Andy McMillian Jr
Code:A001
Bill Number_____Date_____Sub-Total_____Taxes_____Total_____Paid
18750__________15/2/05______754.6________75.46______830.06______YES
18751__________15/2/05______754.6________75.46______830.06______NO
...
Question:
How do I accomplish this structure of dynamic arrays and information???
or, do you have a better idea??
By the way, im using VC++6 under XP
