.net Connection Tool

Hi all,

I just want to inform that I have released version 1.0 of my free .NET Connection Tool for MS Excel. The present version can create and store connection strings for all kind of databases. It can use the Data Link Wizard as well as the .NET based Wizard to create workable connections. New features will be added later on but it will not include all the new features that the upcoming .NET version of SQL Tester will have.

For more information please see: .NET Connection

TJ,

Thanks for Your kind words

Knowing your previous work, I expect it to work very well.

When developing solutions nowadays I test them on the following 'systems':
Windows 2000 - Excel 2000
Windows XP - Excel 2003
Windows Vista - Excel 2007

(My host operating system is UBuntu where I run vmWare for the above 'systems')

One funny thing is that today all kind of softwares are always in the beta stage and whenever a new final version is released a new beta is also around. I can see the point with it for large software corporates but not for add-ins to the Office suite.

In addition, security has become more important now then in the past so the biggest challenge tend to be to leverage the security aspect on the .NET platform and particular with Windows Vista. I put value in the security aspect although it's not a painless process.

All in all, You should expect that my solutions should work

Hi Roy,
Things are looking better and better so now I plan for, at least, 2 months ahead Thanks for moving the thread to a more appropiate subforum. Oz has become a huge spot on the Internet so it takes sometime to find my ways around.
