    Thanks - I was hoping I did not have to write something and could use a library and someone's web service to get started. So, I will extend what I am doing and use your advice. David

    Call tracking/help desk

    I am trying to find a way to keep track of customer calls for new software company I started. I have a few customers using my software, and I need to keep track of calls. It appears that Sharepoint is the right platform, but I am not quite sure how to start. Is someone else using Sharepoint...
