I want to start an e-commerce store online. How do I do this?
Something like my own personal ebay, with email receipts, invoices, and credit card charges. What program should I use?
If you can find a point of contact an microsoft that answers questions like this I will k*** your butt.

You *should* do it the same way you’d provide the store’s legal representation by yourself. IOW, you stick to what you know, and let a web developer develop your site. (For example, do you know your legal liabilities, as far as having customer information stored on the site?)
If you have to use a program to build a site, you shouldn’t be building a commercial site. Site building programs are for kids who want to have a site just to have a site.
