Hi Dan,

We've been using the tax tables since 1988.  Originally on DB with OE&I, now
on R6 with COM.  

The various government agencies will send you notice when the tax tables
change.  It takes just a few minutes to change them.

There are some 3rd party services out there such as Vertax.  But we found
the expense too much considering the small amount of time it takes to setup.

Subject: More basic question (was: Loading tax tables in MAPICS DB)

Due to the underwhelming response to the first post, let me back up a little
to ask:

Is *ANYONE* using the MAPICS tax table (VATTBL)?

Those that are, how do you maintain it?  How do you learn when tax rates
change or are added (or deleted; yeah, right!)?

tia,
db
