Hi Mark,
Thank you for your assistance. In regard to "creating a
relatively simple networkable (i.e. shared) database using VB with
random access files and TYPE structures. To assuage the need to make it
networkable, I told them about record locking "....I wouldn't know where to begin I this regard. Are there any exercises somewhere that I could use to get a handle on things?
Kindest Regards

Subject: [Year 12 SofDev] sacs
Hi,
I am teaching SD and I am being audited .
Now for unit4 outcome 1 sacI I want to do VB.net sac. I want to build upon their sac2 unit 3 sac with vb.net.
To do a networked program what do I need to do?
I want the students to read and write to a file 'common file on a network with customer details'. They will need 2 forms where 1 is input form and another they read in/search data.
The students write to this file and read it and perform calculations eg for mechanic services.
Will ths be OK?
...
as well as
The Task
Apply the stages of software development to produce purpose-designed software that takes into account a networked information system objective and the needs of end-users.
Task 1 (35 marks) - construct a solution using the software development life cycle
Use a range of tools and techniques to produce purpose-designed software.
All stages of software development are studied: analysis, design, development, testing, implementation and evaluation.
Create a testing table that contains a number of tests, the expected outcome of each test and the actual results of the tests. The tests should cover validation, navigation and the solution itself.
Task 2 (10 marks) - User Documentation:
Write effective user documentation that caters for the needs of the intended end-users or audience
Task 3 (5 marks) - Conflict analysis

Hi Ross. Remember that there is nothing in the U4O1 task description in
the study design that mentions the need for a database - it only refers
to a "networked information system". The key knowledge does, however,
strongly lean towards data storage, data files, data access etc.
With the database task last year, I took the hint in the key knowledge
about "serial, sequential and random access" to get the kids to create a
relatively simple networkable (i.e. shared) database using VB with
random access files and TYPE structures. To assuage the need to make it
networkable, I told them about record locking.
It wasn't a huge project, but it was manageable by kids with little
programming experience or skill.
My task (attached) was based on the original by Adrian Janson who kindly
made his outcomes available when I needed them the most. Thanks, Adrian!

Also I am trying to connect an access database to a VB program (AJ's book, Ch 13) but am having a devil of a time as he doesn't use Vis Studio.Net 2005 . Could someone point me in the right direction?
