| Database: | Tape Inventory | |||||||||||||
| Tape Inventory initially used random access data storage to keep track of an inventory of video tapes. Since the client later preferred that the data be stored in an Access database, conversion code as well as an equivalent database version of the program was developed. The form which is used to add/change records is shown below: | ||||||||||||||

| Password Encryption:
Passwords limit the individuals who can use this program. Passwords are kept in an ordinary text file, but they are encrypted using a simple technique that I developed which makes them rather secure. Back to top. |

| Savvy Search:
Searches can be conducted on all of the major fields. What is unique to this search system is that for many of the fields (ones with limited data sets), all possible options are presented as possible search criteria. This is accomplished by searching the entire database and compiling a list of all present unique data entries. This is both fast and accurate. The user then can select one of the possible options (or key in something else), and the search shows all records containing the search criterion. Back to top. |
