Honored ladies and/or gentelmans,

I just lost two hours in answering You long way, but in the end it seems that my post dissapeared and this Web Page requested my new login :-((

Now, long and short of it is that You need professionall like me that after 34 years know enough to not make costly mistakes, which programming language is best, how database should be organized, how to organize safeguards againest possible misfunctioning and losing of data, how to make instant multiple backups and so on.

Question is do You realize how much such project cost and how much time is necesary for its planning and building, testing and foolproofing?
I know it is fashionable nowadays that programs have bugs and nobody guarantee for usability, no matter what cost, but I am of old school that do not permit bugs and incorect results or failures for any reason, short of cataclismic happenings.
With me You get top quality, at cost, of course, but not so much as would cost You schooling and paying 10 first class programers in US for a year time, where You would have nothing for them to do after.
Pay of first class independent COBOL programmer is 350 to 500 thousands $, and Systems Engineer is twice as costly. Such application would cost at least 5 milions, without guarantee it would also work :-((

What You need is akin to Banking software, and everybody expect that handling of their money be faultless, right?

I could answer You long way if You want to hire me :-((

Regards from Zagreb, the capitol of Croatia, Europe!
