I enjoy programming and do it a fair bit for fun; more or less when other people might be doing sudoku or crosswords.
I like to make something that functional and where I learn something new. I've enjoyed using different languages but mainly like to use vb now because it suits us at work. Most of the projects arise due to a desire to learn some new facet of programming combining with a desire to amuse myself or my children with the product.
You're welcome to use the programs and use the source. The only condition is that anything derived from the source should not be sold or used for your commercial gain (without sharing with me that is.)
