    First of all, you need all kinds of diagrams which you can easily do with MS Visio, ER-Diagram, Data Dictionary, UML Diagram, some might want DFD...
    Well, the rest depends on your major if you are a student, or ask someone familiar with the procedures in you faculty

    How did you arrive at completing the DB project without design specs? That was what you were supposed to be "creating" during the research phase of the project that would then drive the development phase of the project...

    ComputerJy's got a GeoIP page dynamic image which shows you the flag of your ISP's location.

    As for your problem, I'm not sure exactly what your'e looking for, but you can start with the Requirements Analysis.

    Edit: Here's a rough guide of what steps you can follow: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Softwar...ent_life_cycle

    I probably should have added an explanation to my signature
    Anyway if you like it or if you see a question mark instead of your country's flag click here

    Yeah right, you thrive on the 'shock' value.

    As long as the "shock" value isn't a "System.Double", cause I can't take that much
