Re: New " DIGIT ARCHIVE "

I too worked on a new archive, made it but when I asked Digit about the database I didn't get any reply. I created it using a sample 5 record database in .NET 3.5

If you see in this month's archive, the database file is in XML and hence I thought I should convert the archive so that it used XMLPath instead of SQL server. I will surely make it.

Congrats to your archive anyway....It appears that you have used the same XML file that Digit has given.

Re: New " DIGIT ARCHIVE "

Ok guys. work at it. Together if you must. Will tell you what we need, and if any of you do it, we will probably buy it off you.

Requirements
-Base it on the earliest .net framework possible. Then, include the framework with the isntallation. The installation should detect the framework, and install it if it is not there already.
-Your source database should be an .xml file. We will mail you an .xml file if you request one, just drop in a line to aditya.madanapalle@9dot9.in
-The different fields in the source xml should be picked up by the program, and parsed into the individual options in the various drop-down menus.
-Instead of CD/DVD, use the tag, "media label", so things like DVD1, DVD2, Mindware, Playware, By Demand etc can all be used.
-apart from month, year, category/section, also include "license". Which should again be parsed from the xml file, depending on all the different kinds of items listed under "license"

To anyone else suggesting features in this thread, please do so, but programmers wait for approval before implementing these features. send in builds to us, again at aditya.madanapalle@9dot9.in, and we will give you feedback, from our side.

We are looking for something at least as fast as the old archive. changing the thread header, tell me if you have any problems with this approach. Thanks for the initiative.

Is the framework necessary to run the application? As long as it is a sub 30MB install, along with the framework, we are OK with any platform you use.
