hi eric-

thank you for the ideas.  i will have fun picking out software used to
design more software.  i already am investigating sqlite for delphi on
sourceforge to see if it works with delphi personal 7 edition.  i have
two questions posted to a sourceforge forum inquiring about it.  it is
easy to just go plop down 1000 on the cadillac version of some software
and know it will work but i like sorting through the bins and coming up
with a decent tool and save money.  to be honest the expensive software
has way more features then i need and i'd never end up using all those
features anyways.

btw i think that your scorch product is a really neat idea.

i will check back in this forum after i select new design software and
get busy writing.

thanks- goodbye

I'm sorry if this isn't really in line with the current thread, because
I've only been reading bits and pieces.  If you just want Delphi, have
you checked Borland's site lately?  They used to give away the personal
version of Delphi, as long as you didn't write anything commercial with
it.  Of course, I don't think it was the latest version, but for free it
works.  You can also get the Borland command line tools for free, and
there are a number of different IDEs on the net that support various
compilers.

Subject: [sqlite] sorry for the confusion re: academic software

hi-
 
i was recently a student but not any longer.  I should have grabbed an
academic copy of delphi on my way out 
the door when i graduated from college last year (poor planning...i am
kicking myself).  I am disabled and work part time
and am on ssdi.  I confused everyone when I mentioned the classes i use
to take and that i was 
working part-time. It certainly made it seem like i am currently a
student and i apologize.  I will
check maybe with a couple places and see if i can get a deal if i am
disabled and do NOT
build anything commercial.  
 
Maybe they cant get me a price any cheaper than what they already offer
but they might take an extra minute
to clarify a license issue if am confused.
 
Thanks for writing.  I will come up with some ideas eventually.  I have
lots of free time to think about it.
 
I hope i can write some sqlite software tools or other free software
soon.
 
thanks,
jim
