Download details: SQL Server Centric .NET Code Generator (OlyMars)
"SQL Server Centric .NET Code Generator (code named OlyMars) is both a flexible and powerful code generator based on database modeling.
It allows instant generation of both SQL and .Net code providing a complete library of stored procedures, .NET classes and ready-to-use Windows/Web form controls (including associated documentation).
SQL Server Centric .NET Code Generator is also fully extensible to use one's own custom templates and consequently can be adjusted to generate any custom code respecting a homogeneous implementation scheme within the company (can be written either in VB .NET or C# .NET)."
Intersting... Worth a look at least... from the read it seems CodeSmith "like" but will have to see.
In taking a quick look at it, CodeSmith 2.5 has a much better UI.

"Adobe Reader Speed-Up significantly decreases the amount of time required for Adobe Reader 6.0 to start by disabling most of the least used plugins. Plugins can be freely enabled and disabled, if required."
Nice...
Will have to use this. :)

A cool VS 2003 addin that makes signing your assemblies MUCH easier.
Yeah, once you know about sn.exe, etc it's not hard, but still.
There are more things I have to worry about/remember than silly things that should be in the IDE anyway...

Visual Studio Home: Developing Software in Visual Studio .NET with Non-Administrative Privileges
Visual Studio Home: Developing Software in Visual Studio .NET with Non-Administrative Privileges: "Members of the local Administrators group have privileges to perform any action on a machine. This causes both a risk to the user performing actions in that environment and to the software that they develop. This article explains how to productively develop software while logged on with non-administrative privileges"
Interesting... Something to think about...

TECA ImageTransferPlus - A BLOB transfer program for SQL Server or Oracle
For those of us putting LOB's, CLOB's and BLOB's in our SQL DB's this is pretty cool looking...
"ImageTransferPlus is a fully graphical import-and-export utility that makes it easy to add Text/XML and BLOB (Binary Large Objects) data to your SQL SERVER or ORACLE database. Eliminating the need to write custom file import and export programs, ImageTransferPlus is the fastest and most efficient binary data transfer mechanism for SQL SERVER or ORACLE available. ImageTransferPlus is able to import and export any PC file type to and from an Image or Text column. This allows graphic, audio, video and other application files be easily stored and retrieved from a SQL SERVER or ORACLE database. ImageTransferPlus can be used to transfer virtually any PC file including:
- XML files (.htm, .xml, .xsd, .html, .plg)
- Image files (.bmp, .gif, .pcx, .tif, .jpeg)
- Audio files (.wav, .mp3, .wmf)
- Executable files (.exe, .dll, .ocx)
- Application files (.zip, .doc, .xls, .ppt)
- Text files (.txt, .csv)"

Sysinternals Freeware - Utilities for Windows NT and Windows 2000 - Process Explorer
Sysinternals Freeware - Utilities for Windows NT and Windows 2000 - Process Explorer
I know I've posted this utility before (or at least stuff by SysInternal), but I have to post it again... Damn those guys are GOOD!
Their Process Explorer just helped my save my sanity...
"Ever wondered which program has a particular file or directory open? Now you can find out. Process Explorer shows you information about which handles and DLLs processes have opened or loaded.
The Process Explorer display consists of two sub-windows. The top window always shows a list of the currently active processes, including the names of their owning accounts, whereas the information displayed in the bottom window depends on the mode that Process Explorer is in: if it is in handle mode you’ll see the handles that the process selected in the top window has opened; if Process Explorer is in DLL mode you’ll see the DLLs and memory-mapped files that the process has loaded. Process Explorer also has a powerful search capability that will quickly show you which processes have particular handles opened or DLLs loaded.
The unique capabilities of Process Explorer make it useful for tracking down DLL-version problems or handle leaks, and provide insight into the way Windows and applications work. "
