Making an MP3 player in VB 6 using DirectShow (DirectX) as the backend

We are forced to use VB and quite simply it sucks

For my school major project, I have to develop a database like program using VB. I have to enter new records, delete existing records, search records etc. As well as documenting the whole software solution... *sigh*... such a big project

exactly what i gotta do, build a database for a shop (mines sells sporting goods) and the program has to let customers browse through. Then there is a place where only staff can access to actually order, check availability etc, then theres a section where only the boss can access that has info on payrolls and stuff like that

My project is a source safe database..Similar to that of Microsoft's Visual Source Safe software.

There are 2 applications, the server and the client. Basically you setup a project in it and tell it the folder where your source is stored. Everytime you log off windows it will remove all your files and store them in the database server.. Of course it's encrypted and you need a password to restore your files.. so your precious source is protected :) ..

It's written in C++ and is best run on NT systems.

I have 35 pages of documentation. The source is 11,000 lines long.

The binaries uncrompressed are just a tad under 12mb. Most of that is the server. It uses my own compression algorithm on the flat files (binary written) so they take up even less space and makes them even harder to crack because to read them you'd need to figure out my compression and then the key for the encryption scheme which is relational to the password entered. . . Nice and safe especially if the server is on another machine with a good firewall.

I'm doing a tour of the school in which we have been taking digital pics of the school, going to add some video to it etc, and having pics of all the interesting departments, ie Computing, Metal work, woodwork, Food technology, science, PE. That sort of thing. Although people from the previous year did the same, but their program was so complex, (navigation system) that they didn't get it completed.

Yeah automated cvs .. essentially. when you compile you run your program through the client passing the command line, it then backs up the changed source (uses md5) after x number of compiles.
