26. A method of distributing a program product, the method comprising the steps of:establishing a connection between a first computer system and a second computer system; and transmitting the program product from the first computer system to the second computer system, wherein the program product comprises an object oriented framework that includes a plurality of pre-defined object oriented classes that may be extended by a user, the framework providing an extensible warehouse control system, the framework having a Warehouse Internal mechanism comprising a Logistics Company category of cooperating objects that identify one or more warehouses of the Company, and a Warehouse External mechanism comprising a Stock Control category of cooperating objects that identify stock control activities of the Company. 27. A method as defined claim 26, wherein:the Logistics Company category of cooperating objects further contains object classes that identify an inventory of products and identify costing methods followed by the Company with respect to the products, and the Stock Control category of cooperating objects further contains object classes that identify stock control activities and perform the identified stock control activities on the warehouse inventory of products such that the cooperating objects update the product inventory as a result of performing the identified stock control activities. 28. A method as defined in claim 27, wherein the Warehouse Internal mechanism further includes a Stock Transactions category of cooperating objects that identify stock transaction activities comprising additions and deletions of the products from the warehouse inventory of products, and that adjust the warehouse inventory of products in accordance with the stock transaction activities.
