Q. When customizing Mail-Shop, what kind of issues should I be aware of?
A. Although Mail-Shop Order Mangement System for Windows is fully customizable, we recommend that all customizations are made by Virtual Systems or an expert MS Access developer. Mail-Shop was designed to accomodate and integrate with user-designed objects. Some customizations may cause the application to become non-upgradeable, or render the software non-functional. If you wish to make modifications to your program, our installer can put aside some special time during the training sessions to discuss the process in detail with your programmer.

Q. Do I need Microsoft Access to run Mail-Shop?
A. Mail-Shop comes with a run-time version of Microsoft Access 2003 so you do not need to purchase copies of MS Access for everyone. However, you will need at least 1 copy of MS Access 2000 or newer if you wish to build and modify your own reports.
