Ive just done a design for a client that has resulted in around 300 seperate
orders.

We havent been able to get 100% of the design this time round (I think we around
95%) and as the allocate order to wanted list on here has to be done 1 order
at a time and it doesnt remove it from the list when allocated I have just created
a program to load the xml wanted list and an xml order list.

It runs through all the orders, pulls out the items, colours and quantites and
then compares them to the wanted list.

You can either use it to updated the 'Qty Filled' on the existing wanted
list or to output a new wanted list with only the remaining items on it.

I did find another piece of software on the web that said it did the same, but
I couldn't get it to work no matter what I tried.

If anyone is interested in it then I am happy to send it to you or send the source
code (written in VB.net)

Its only version 1 so will get slicker as I go, but for now its functional and
works!
