  Hi Amit, I'm not familiar with the math equation software you mentioned above. Please post your question on the ASP.NET forums (forums.asp.net) for help. This way many developers who have had similar issues will be able to see your question. Thanks Erik

  For part two, I'm currently planning the following tutorials: business logic (shopping cart), check out, membership with administration, global exception handing, and deployment. It will take some time to put this together and I want to make sure quality is the top priority.

  Hi Victor Gomes, The first thing you should check is that you have created your credentials for PayPal and added those credentials to the code. I hope that solves it.
