Hi Ted,
My first thought is what is your time scale on this?
If you have 6 months before it needs to be live, then waiting for version3 is probably a better thing to do. I intend to allow extension like this to be part of the structure of version3.
If you need it before then version2 will allow you to do this kind of thing, it's just a matter of how integrated you need it. One thing I've done in the past is to have a completely seperate module to NB_Sotre, which references the data controller and interfaces of NB_Store and hence NB_Store gathers all the data required, using the built in bespoke fields which can be created to gather data input.
From what you say above, you might need somethign a little more integrated, in which case you'll need to probably create your own template token to deal with your requirement. I'm so involved in version3 now, it's difficult to remmeber what kind of integration version2 will allow with the token system it has, but have a look at the "EventInterface.vb", "TagExtraInterface.vb" and "TokenExtraInterface.vb" files, these interfaces (and the others in the project) have been designed to do the kind of thing your talking about.....a seperate functionaiity to NB_Store, but using NB_Store to provide the required e-commerce workflow.
I'm not fully sure on your requiremnts here, but it sounds like you should be able to do this in version2, but it might be easier and better if you can wait for version 3.
Regards,
Dave.
