Re: What is the best package for creating a web enabled database?

Try "Web Databases For Dummies" by Paul Litwin (methinks). Do some reading, start your project and then post particular problems that you are encountering so that someone here can help. Your question is too general. A good answer to your question would be:

You need to hire someone to develop that program for you. That doesn't really help, does it?

Good luck!
