  7. 3rd Party Tools

    Microsoft tools are the most important tools I have. I spend most of my time using Outlook, Visual Studio.NET, SQL Server Enterprise Manager and Access. However Microsoft tools don't do everything I want to do. Rather than spending my time recreating the wheel, I am always on the look out for non-Microsoft options or extensions that will save me time.
