This is not my inventory, it is their inventory. There may be multiple 
locations entering in their own inventory. (Think more along the lines of 
an office inventory rather than a store inventory).

>I wouldn't recommend CFGRID or CFFORM.  Those are limited functions.

Ok, alternatives?

Array type? Remember, I am somewhat new to this part of it.
