    No need - MS already made one...it's called Scandisk (in reference to scandisk getting confused on my linux partition and wiping my development drive...)

    How about a program that sends an email to someone every 5 minutes?

    Hey...a program to convert VB to C++

    Create a program that predicts what the user is going to click. So, if he/she clicks start, move the mouse to programs.

    My final project for school was a program to determine the vacation shedule for my current job. Only a certain percentage of the employees from each department could have a specific day off. We also had certain days where this rule was broken and everyone could have the day off. It counted how many days each person had taken off, so that they couldn't schedule any more time off than what they were allowed. The longer you were at the company, the more time you were granted. It automatically calculated how many days off you got by using your employee start date. It printed reports for the week to show who was scheduled to be off on which days and more. It also could print reports at the end of the annual year for the employees performance review to show what kind of attendance you had (sick days, unpaid days, etc.). It worked really well with an activex calendar control.

    Just an idea....

    Unhappy smh currently doing something similar

    Writing a roster system for a hardware store. Man trying to ensure everyone works five days in a row and gets two days off is a killer. Have just finished the annual leave portion of it, to show the client so am progressing.

    Everyone else's final project were boring compared to mine. I was the first person ever to get a 100% on my final project by this teacher. I know that I did the most complex final project.
