We are wanting to integrate everything between different databases.  The
program can already write to individual SQL databases besides its own but
the programmers say they have been having problems writing all required info
to the IPSwitch databases (don't ask me what exactly since I am not a
programmer) and I have directed them to the IPSwitch development to see if
they can resolve the issues.

The Billing/Authentication program we use can be customised to any fields
which are required.  We have specific info we want written to the different
databases depending on what account type is being created.  We need all info
for individual users that are contained in the IMail Admin Program.  This is
pretty well standard info from the ITrans program yet the calls need to be
changed as to how it writes to the Database apparently and this is where a
big problem is occuring.  We need the same for the WSFtp Server.

We are working with WebBoard on their database layout and an API from them
and WebsitePro has no such interface but we are attempting to work an SQL
interface with them also (or at the least an API that will allow the ITrans
program to write directly to either a .ini file or the specific Registry Key
for WSPro).

It is/has been a long process but I feel it will be worth it when all is
said and done....
