The Express versions are cutdown versions of the full Visual Studio packages. In the Express versions some features have been scaled back, e.g. debugging and refactoring capabilities. However, the Express software still remain extremely useful for the casual software developer, especially those looking for a low cost way of learning about software development.

IT Mangers are also faced with problems trying to find staff capable to organising data in a way which is both powerful and easy to implement. Recruiting staff to create database systems is also particularly difficult. However, this isn't a new problem.
Therefore companies have lots of old MS Access database which they want to use today and staff with limited MS Access skills. Providing security for these database can be costly, both in time and expertise.
MDBSecure 2009 - released by Mindwarp Consultancy Ltd, has been created for this purpose.
It takes minutes to add security to MS Access database and no expertise is required.

If you are looking for a free, but still very capable accounting sofware package, look no further than Microsoft Office Accounting Express 2008. In recent years Microsoft has been releasing Express versions of it's leading software titles and now it's the turn of Microsoft Accounting.
Even though it's free, Accounting Express is still stuffed with features and is ideal for a home-based business or a small business with 1 or 2 employees. The software includes integration with a number of online financial institutions as well as eBay and is ideally suited to an e-commerce business. Of course, the essential features of invoicing, estimates and payment tracking are included as well as handy cashflow management features.
As you'd expect with software from the biggest PC software developer, if your needs outgrow the Express version, you can upgrade seamlessly to the full version of Microsoft Accounting. To get you started with the Express version, you can import data from QuickBooks and even Microsoft's own Money package.
Microsoft doesn't have a reputation for producing small packages however: be prepared to download over 320Mb to get Accounting Express. And, of course, Microsoft want you to purchase some software - to use Microsoft Accounting Express, you need to have purchased the 2007 versions of Microsoft Word and Microsoft Excel as well as Business Contact Manager.

[TRICK UP YOUR HARD DISK]
“Available Now”
UltimateDefrag 2008
The world's most powerful and flexible defragger and hard drive optimizer has just become even more powerful and more flexible.
Reprogrammed and recoded almost from scratch with a new graphical user interface, a faster defrag engine and even more powerful and flexible file selection options, UltimateDefrag 2008 takes defragmentation and more importantly, file placement optimization, to the next level.
We're excited about it and we're sure you are too.
Here are just just some of the things done in UltimateDefrag 2008:
*
New Graphical User Interface
Not only is UltimateDefrag better, it's now also "prettier". The GUI display also provides you with more information on the defrag in progress since we like to sit there and watch UltimateDefrag do its magic.
*
Faster Defrag Engine
The already-fast defrag engine is now up to 30 to 100 % faster as a result of several new and intelligent file moving techniques including nearest free space placement which can more than half the time it takes to move files, preemptive space clearing, and minimal file movement algorithms. With the additional progress indicator on the new GUI you will be able to clearly see the increased speed at which files are moved.
Other enhanced defrag engine features such as the "Very Fast Placement" feature completes the archive and high performance phases of the defrag up to 1000% faster and doesn't move a single byte of data more than it has to.
Other features of the defrag engine have been specifically developed to address virtually any mix of files on your hard drive. Drives that may contain very large files such as large AVI videos and large images are handled with ease. By setting specific options, the program will not move these files unless it absolutely has to.
*
High Performance File Placement In Just Minutes
The time is reduced it takes to place High Performance Files by as much as 1000%. If you're only interested in keeping your High Performance Files in their position for maximum PC performance, High Performance File Placement is completed in just minutes and often times in seconds.
*
More File Placement Options
New options and ways to place your files. Make your archive files either go to the inner tracks or just inside your High Performance data. Move only High Performance data, ignore the rest and enjoy fast defrags with a highly optimized file placement. Whatever you want to do - whatever way you want to do it... you can... and fast too.
File selection screen allows you to modify speed of file placement. You can even select files by wildcard or even specify how much data you want to remain as High Performance data. UltimateDefrag will in this instance keep your 30 Gb of most frequently used data in the High Performance zone.
*
More File Selection Options
You can now use wildcards to select High Performance or Archive files. This technique couldn't be easier to select all of your movie or MP3 files or $NTUNINSTALL Folders and put them to archive. And there's a number of other powerful ways to choose the files you want performance from or simply want out of the way.
*
Many More Under The Hood Improvements
We've also performed a number of under-the-hood improvement to make UltimateDefrag even more stable and efficient.
*
Hard Drive Performance Still The #1 Priority
We talk of all these new features but is this product still achieving #1 priority of increasing hard drive performance? Well that's the point... the answer is a big YES! What we've done with the new features and technologies in UltimateDefrag 2008 is to "further" speed up hard drive performance and have developed ways to achieve it even faster with much faster defrags and with even less movement of files during the process.

Myth Busted!
And we just wish to make this VERY IMPORTANT POINT AGAIN point again... all other defraggers are just defraggers... they focus only on defragging files. If you are using any other defrag product besides UltimateDefrag (with the exception of one other product*) - regardless of what you believe or what you are told - you are not achieving any significant increase in hard drive performance.
If you have a few fragmented files (or even a reasonably large number) on your hard drive, just defragging them will only give you a small improvement in hard drive performance.
Just defragging files is only 30% of the hard drive performance improvement equation. The other 70% comes from where your files are placed on your hard drive. This is called file placement optimization. UltimateDefrag 2008 is the only "File Placement Optimizer" available on the planet and the ONLY way to achieve true hard drive performance improvement by defragging and strategically placing your key files. Only UltimateDefrag can do that for you with the control, power and flexibility that it gives you.
UltimateDefrag is the leading (and only) product with this (Patent Pending) approach to defragging and file placement optimization and the new upcoming 2008 version makes it many times more powerful than before.
