RE: [ic] [ic]/[mv] Large Product tables
Amen.
Actually in my case all admin, product entry/edit/delete is done through
separate php scripts with other functions also done my separate php apps. We
want ic/mv to do the cart operations only.
I'm a refugee from MS Commerce Server myself which costs bazillions to own,
and bazillions to operate, and is about as forgiving as the Spanish
Inquisition. Not to mention less powerful.... :-)
That's a kudos by the way.
