It goes out to various WOW add-on sites, checks for the latest versions, compares it with the users current version, allows the user to selectively or globally update their add-ons, has a live update feature built in, looks great etc.

I was halfway done with a VERY complex app that could be used to manage hotels, only I got let go by my prior employer who I was writing it for, so I’m not enthusiastic about finishing it. I recently created and am using my Forms Generator app, which fills out PDF forms I use everyday with data from a Sequel database. It’s a HUGE tool for me, and I am adding on to it regularly new features that make it even more useful. I have a button I click that opens a Google Map using their API so that it shows up on my iPhone when I need to navigate to the site! I am finishing up a feature which will take the Excel forms I am getting from the dispatcher and parsing the data in them to populate the database with. All I have to do is drop the spreadsheets into a designated folder and click a button, and next thing I know all the customer, site, copier and accessory data has populated my Sequel database.

What this narrow minded short sighted individual cannot seem to grasp is the power it gives a single developer like me to quickly create really useful applications which would take a team of C developers MONTHS and even YEARS to produce, and then expand on them to suit my needs spending a few hours in the evenings while sucking down a beer or three. .

Of course if you really wan to rub his face in the above you should post 
it on the thread in the Forums.

He certainly was a bit "tetchy" re my last post there :/
