2. Recap of Previously Completed Work Previously I had done the following: Built the Database, started basic layout of the webpage, connected the webpage to the database.  I have added new features to the webpage:  Customer Wish List

3. Currently in Progress Completing the GUI for the employee login. The employee will need the ability to edit items, and also will need to view customers and their wish list. Reports for popular items will be needed and useful.

4. In progress Created a wish list login page for the customer Created an accessories page with a demo product.

5. Current tasks Resources Used I need to finish connecting my webpage and my windows application to the database to make them fully functional. I need to correctly display items for purchase on the web so that updates on pricing or description can be made on the database and webpage at the same time (more dynamic) I also need to add paypal plug in to the item to allow credit card or paypal purchases.  Microsoft Windows 2003 Server  Microsoft SQL Server 2008  Microsoft.Net Framework 2.0 (VB.Net)  ASP.Net 2.0 (VB.Net)  Microsoft SQL Management Studio 2008  Internet Information Services 6.0  Adobe Dreamweaver CS4

6. End Notes I chose to use VB.Net because it is a native coding platform for Windows and Windows web servers. The setup will be easier than other languages like PHP, allowing me to get more completed in this project by the due date. I chose to use aspx over html because aspx will allow me to create a server based page versus just a webpage. It will allow me to integrate all objects in this project better.
