Hi
Sory to hear about your earlier problems with this project. It is a bit difficult to work out how to help you, how long the project will take or a reasonable bid on the project because so little detail has been published.
I'm also working away on a C project at the moment so I won't be available for work until 16th May 2008.
I can't say any more until I know what your poblem is. I do have database experience over Windows and Linux - MS SQL, MySQL mostly and PHP experience as well as Perl/CGI, Apache on Linux systems.
It would be useful to have a problem description to be able to help you.
Look forwarding to hear from you.
Regards
Lesley Binks
