The mail order software that I am presently using is DOS based (dBase lll)
It is a very basic order processing system. I am looking to convert this software to a window based OS or locate a vender (non-hosting) who can custumize presently available mail order software to my needs.
Daily volume is minimal (10-15/day).
Does not require business management modules
The dBase program code is available along with menus.

One option that you might want to consider is using phpBMS and customizing it to your needs.
Pros:
1. phpBMS is free.
2. It is open source software. You can download the source code and customize it yourself (if you have technical skills in your company) or hire a third-party vendor to do it for you.
Cons:
1. It is not a Windows application. It is a web application. However, you can run it in one machine or only in your LAN.
2. It has a ton of features, which you may not need. However, you can ignore those and use only what is of interest to you.
Hello,
Mail Order Wizard has an extraordinarily friendly user interface. Since Wizard is DOS-based, navigation within the application doesn't require that you repeatedly stop what you are doing to reposition a cursor. The mail list management program is solid and easy to use; order entry provides for a variety of shipping, billing, or mailing addresses; order tracking is straightforward; items are easy to set up. The system is extremely stable - I can't remember the last time it crashed.
