Il be the first to admit my studying of vb has been slow and steady. Latley though i seem to just not want to do it. Does this happen to anyone else? For instance i was working on a nice little program that would store all my passwords and log in info.

I spent time detailing what it should look like, how the data should be stored etc and started to plough into it. I was quite excited too, because this would be my first proper app. Meaning would i could give to people and one they would find functional. Maybe even use it on a day to day basis.

I completed the interface, the user controls added the icons and wrote all the navigation code. Basicly all i needed to do was add the database and hook it to the app....... Then i stopped, i dont know why, ive never worked with databases before and wanted to do this one in code. But will reading up on database i became confused and annoyed. Any examples i had to learn from used wizards and controls, i didnt want to use wizards and controls. I found more tutorials but hey all assumed i had the "pubs" database.

So in the end i became so annoyed i havent went back to it, in fact i ended up wasting two months on WOW because of it. I would really like to finish the app because it would be a milestone. Im sure a programmers first useful application is. But for some reason i just can't. Maybe if i could get a good sql server 2005 tutorial that shows how to hook everything up in code i would. My worry is this may happen on the next hard bit of learning i come across.

Is this normal? does every developer have parts of a program they hate doing?
