life has been keeping me very busy!

finally, due to the pressure of circumstances, I started coding really hard on my internship project. During this whole week I made 90% of it, and it is now almost finished!

Almost everything is working… new orders, products, suppliers and export and import from XML. Now i’m creating a “first time” wizard to set up the initial database and config files. I’ve also spent some hours fine tunning the user interface and fixing some usability issues.

I am actually quiet impressed with Visual Studio 2005. it makes life really simple comparing to VS2003. Well, at least for people who code for smart devices The database abstraction is excellent.. its great do design and test databases in the desktop computer knowing that the SQL server is running in such a small device. Ah, techonology!

So finally everything is sorted out for my internship.

My assigment is to develop an application for managing clients, inventory and orders on the Pocket PC (read: windows CE) platform.
So I was given a Fujitsu-Siemens L00X 600, which is pretty cool

Right now i’m still getting used to it, and in a week I need to decide what development language I’m going to use. Probably C# for the Compact .Net Framework…. yes, I’m going to the dark side of the force
