new application development

Mar 15 2007 10:13 AM
Hello, I am going to begin developing a workflow type of system and I would like to get some thoughts from the community. I would like to create a database application that will track a product to various points throughout a plant. There will be less than 10 workstations, one or two at each point within the plant. Every time a product passes through a location, the person at that station will update the database with data about the product. There is typically no more than one weeks worth of data that will need to be stored at one time, so I think MS Access would be a sufficient database backend. I initially thought I would use C# and ASP .net to create a web interface to connect to the back end and display the data needed. After thinking about this further, I think just using a C# windows application would be the better approach. I will have to have near real time displays of where a product is at different points, and I didn't think a web based application would be the best approach. I was just hoping someone could provide some thoughts supporting either or option, or offer a totally different method of doing this. Thank in advance for any input.
