Description:
I need a small application that will connect to ebay's web site, download all of the categories and category numbers into an Access 2000 database. The structure needs to be replicated on an access form in a tree view control and the category number selected needs to be saved. I need to be able to use this form in another access project so it needs to be easy to use.
http://listings.ebay.com/pool1/listings/list/all/category20081/categories.html?from=R0#_top
The above web address lists all of the main categories along with their corresponding numbers.
Deliverables:
1) Complete and fully-functional working program(s) in executable form as well as complete source code of all work done.
2) Complete ownership and distribution copyrights to all work purchased.
Platform:
Application needs to be for Access 2000 in an mdb file. I would prefer that it be done completely in Access but Visual Basic 6.0 can be used as a front end that stores the information into the database.
WIN 98SE, WIN 2000, WIN XP
Special Conditions / Other:
Must be completed within a few days of bid acceptance. If you already have what I am looking for you can send me an exe sample to look at.
Remember that contacting the other party outside of the site (by email, phone, etc.) on all business projects < $500 (before the buyer's money is escrowed) is a violation of both the software buyer and seller agreements.
We monitor all site activity for such violations and can instantly expel transgressers on the spot, so we thank you in advance for your cooperation.
If you notice a violation, you can report it to: abuse@rentacoder.com.

Greetings!
I already have the code that pulls out the categories from eBay. Its in VB6. It is a part of an application I had developed for one of my customer.
I would need to change the code a little bit so that it can be stored into an Access Database.
It can be picked up from the database shown in the TreeView.
Excuse me, but, I am not clear about what exactly you are trying to say in the following statement...
'The structure needs to be replicated on an access form in a tree view control and the category number selected needs to be saved.'
What do u mean by...
'the category number selected needs to be saved.'
Where do you want to save it? The entire list of categories and category numebr would have been already downloaded and saved into the database. Right?
Can you pls explain?
Once I am clear on this, the whole thing could be developed within a day.
Have a nice day.
Warm Regards,
-Carrot |
