I don't like writing from scratch so what I did was just rewrite
the thing one peice at a time.  First thing I did was get rid of
all the recursive procedure calls, that is a sure way to a dead
program :).  Then I rewrote the menu procedure so I could use it
for any sized menu.  But the disk I/O stuff was totally fried, I just
did a wholesale delete and started writing from scratch when I hit
that.  The first time I ran the program it wouldn't even run
because it wasn't capable of creating an inventory file if one
didn't exist.  Now I only use one file, although I'll probably have to
go for a temp file when I do the sort.  The only animiation I am going
to do is a banner type thing where I do the company name in big letters.
But I am waiting till I get everything else done.

Oh when you get done be sure to send it to him, might as well shower him
with the things since he wants one so bad!
