Ian's comment - Week 4

Ian mentioned that there was a need to integrate the application with current standards

VCard is the standard for business card. This is assumed to be of CSV type. More research to be made on it.

Visual Studio Databases

this might help as it describes incorporating a database as part of the solution as opposed to being an external entity.

This somewhat breaks the law of our component based system, but it's not possible to add a new database to the server explorer unless you have a SQL Server client

iOrganise Diary/Journal

I've now "finished" the main GUI screens for iOrganiseHowever, there is a lot still to be done in terms of programming the GUI. For example the diary should have different views such as:

- Day on a page
- Three days on a page
- A week on a page
- A month on a page

From there we need to find a way to get the new entry to be represented on those slots....The journal is basically finished even if there is still a lot to do to work out how to list all the entries pertaining to a particular month and year.

improvement for addressbook / generic menu thingy

• form centred on the screen on startup
• the advanced search button is pressed in when clicked
• font type highlight does not disappear on mouse off
• phone book letter buttons - clickable region need to be round
• phone book letter buttons - white text (web colours)
• business card details - label text of textboxes to be inserted into the textbox so that they disappear when the user clicks on those text boxes...
• three buttons at the bottom - hand mouse over when mouse hovers over
• separators in between the file menu
• & for the file menu
• scroll bar for the available business cards
• tool tips - need writing
• the exit button needs to be fully shown - the bottom is cut off

XML Schemas

1) Write an XML file
2) Click on "XML" -> "Create Schema"

However, you need to make sure the XML file has every possibility i.e. for a field to be optional you must put the same element twice, once with the data and once without... Which is why the guy writing the article suggests that you start with the XSD file -> You can easily miss something when generating from XML, so you need to at least check that the XSD is what you intended for it to be

XSD and XML Schema

This document explains how you can use Visual Studio to pre-load an XSD file that can be used to generate/read a schema from an external source.

O'reilly also makes mention of the creation of your XML Schema through the use of the Visual Studio create New Schema tool
