Hello!

I have a fairly large vb windows forms application that allows for various tables in an sql database to be viewed, and manipulated. The program has a login and allows users to access different things depending on who they are. I need to create a workflow inside this program that

A. Sees if the item selected for manipulation needs the workflow (true or False column value in the row of the table)

B. Allows them to make the changes, but not save them to the database.

C. Email or somehow contact someone to either accept, deny, or give feedback to the person who requested the changes.

D. If accepted, changes are saved, if denied, the user starts from scratch.

This workflow would only be used for one table in the sql database. I look online and I cant find any tutorials on using workflows within a forms application. I don't even know where to start. I have previously made workflows in sharepoint but that is the extent of my knowledge on the subject. I use Visual Studio 2013. I saw there is a thing called WCF that deals with workflows. I also saw you can make entire workflow projects. But I just need to implement workflow within my program, starting over would take weeks. I just need to be pointed in the right direction!
