I voted for VB.NET since im starting to learn it and I have some transferable skills to start with.

russdev · 28-07-2005, 02:46 PM

also some kind soul has said they should be able to host a cvs system for edugeek will not say there name as not set in stone but if they come forward then great.

Also what version of visual studio or what ever are people using... only thing that might throw spanner in works is that vs 2003 and 2005 can not share source code so one or the other..

Well depending on a time scale of when we get started id say 2003 since 2005 is still in beta. I assume 2005 will have some kind of code upgrade option like VB 6 to 2003 (although how good I have no idea). Saying that though by time we get everything sorted 2005 may be released properly.
That would also mean me shelling out again

russdev · 28-07-2005, 04:59 PM

well 2005 you can convert 2003 code to 2005 but you can not save back to 2003

Well can get beta version of 2005 for free from website... but really either way as i have not got 2003 so going to have to payout in some way..

I (should when it turns up) be getting the beta of visual studio 2005 soon, but cant fork out (surprise surprise) to buy a Visual Studio license.

I got VB 6 Pro nice 'n' legally tho lol

[400th post yay!]

Cheers
Nath.

ChrisH · 02-08-2005, 06:56 PM

Ive not had chance to do anyhting yet got family over last couple of days. Going to convert my user import script to a HTA then I will get stuck in.

ajbritton · 02-08-2005, 10:25 PM

It might be worth considering that this app will need to run on Vista, so that means a .NET based language is the way to go...?

In the past I have produced a VB based user manager (with bulk import), which almost, kind of worked. Since then I've moved to an Excel template and a VB script which does the business for me now. As these have been developed for my employer (local council) I would not be able to share them, but I would be happy to assist, if I can, with the new development.
