Re: Examples Of Options/Accessories?



******    message to minivend-users from Chris =?iso-8859-1?Q?M=FCller?= <cmueller@polinet.ch>     ******

This does not answer your question, however, I would like to point you to the docs
(3.12beta) on "CommonAdjust Examples". You may find some hints and examples there
(under "To enable the automatic modifier handling ...").

In my opinion, you may need to set up a field for each accessory containing a list
of the options. Define the accessories in the catalog.cfg with UseModifier. Section
"Pricing" of the docs gives pretty good examples.
