SSW Update - September 2001 We're Looking for Feedback on our Upcoming Projects |
|
|
|
We are always looking for feedback for our upcoming projects, so we're placing specifications for some of our projects here inviting you to have your say. Any feedback is very welcome, as it allows us to improve the design of our utilities before they are even released. During the last decade SSW developed some great products and utilities. This was achieved together with help from people like you, who have given us invaluable feedback. SSW has a continued goal to concentrate on developing products that have a clear market need and stand out from our competitors. Most companies have one corporate database, usually it's powered by some relational database management system such as SQL Server, Oracle (and sometimes even Access). Companies also usually have one mail server (in our case, we're assuming Exchange Server 2000) with many emails to and from clients. These are two great sources of information relating to your company's clients, however, there is rarely little link between these. Databases are often the lifeblood of a company with customer details and invoices. Reports from the database are crucial for managers to determine the health of the company, e.g. how much was invoiced last month. Email systems are the daily workhorse of a company that have customer inquiries, support answers etc. There is a lot of information that is important to the company e.g. which employees are doing the most customer liaison, which products are requiring the most maintenance, which customers take up the most resources. There
needs to be some sort of product that can give reports from Exchange
Server - just as there are for databases. This will enpower management
to efficiently make decisions regarding the company's past activities.
To that end the need for 'SSW Exchange Manager'. Cheers
until next time, |

BRAND NEW PRODUCT - SSW Access Reporter for IIS Serving
reports over the web is one possible complication from a browser-based
application. Most people are forced to choose Crystal to deliver
sexy on-line reports. The SSW Access Reporter for IIS will now allow
you to deliver Access reports over the web! SSW Access Reporter for IIS is a utility for serving Microsoft Access reports via IIS. It is designed to keep Access open and available, and process report requests in a FIFO (First In, First Out) manner. The
idea is that only one Microsoft Access object needs to be open,
saving on resource consumption. Also, as the Access object is kept
open, the server is ready to process requests for reports quickly,
as there is no need for the overhead of starting Access each time
a report needs to be run. Check out SSW Access Reporter for IIS
This session will detail how to create a VB.NET desktop database application. We will discuss the advantages of VB.NET over Access and VB. You’ll also learn about:
