Some time ago I purchased a really great piece of software written in
REALbasic from Intellisense Inc which utilises a bar code reader to
catalog all your books, music and movies.
Over the years I have built up quite a large collection of all three,
and with this catalog copied to my PDA it stops me making the stupid
mistake of buying the same thing twice (I have a very bad short term
memory).
More recently, my insurance company asked me to put a value on this
collection, which as it is spread across about five rooms and an attic
meant I had to do it from the catalog.
Which in turn meant rolling my own solution. It copes with prices in
ukp, euros, US and Canadian dollars.
If anyone out there either has the same catalog software and hasn't
already done the same thing, or anybody interested in a fairly
elementary exercise in RB, would be interested in a copy just email me
directly and I'll be happy to send you the project files.
It is written in RB2006r4 which is the last full version I purchased,
but it compiles and runs using a demo version of RB2008r4.
Regards,
Doug Neale
