Thanks Mike for that insight.

1) Allocating Stock: I thought about doing something like that.  I felt that
by putting in some sort of "marker", I could allocate a specific product to
a transaction until the transaction is complete or if it has been cancelled.
I will toy with that idea for now.

2) Deleting Stock: so, instead of deleting the employees, I shoud leave them
in the database but marked as "gone?"

3) Using while packing: It was suggested by somebody that a true RDBMS
doesnt require packing as it automatically fills unused space with new
records.  Is this correct?

4) Relations: so, I shouldnt use relationships that much in database design?

5) ADO: is ADO solid enough?  I mean... I would like to eventually port
something like this to linux... if that day comes... so, I am assuming ADO
is not available to the Linux platform.  Any suggestions on something that
would give me the power I would need for this sort of project?

Thanks Mike for your assistance.  I appreciate your thoughts about it.
