I'm going to start a new project - a small (but very user friendly) accounting software. I'm looking for some general tips, advices and experience - mostly technical. Can you point me to some articles, e-books?
btw. I'm not a noob, I just want to go with the best practice I can find.
Thank you.

This forum is for people to request or suggest ideas for articles. It's not for programming questions. Your question would be better placed in the 'General Discussions' forum.

You asked the perfect question and I have the exact program you are looking for. However, because I am using the program/code in a National programming competition I can't release anything 
The one I wrote:
-8,000 lines of code
-300 hours to create
-handles vendors->POs->Invoices->Check Register->Reporting->User Management->Check sheet printing, etc
I am bummed that I cant share more of the program, but if you need assistance just post back. I might be able to help a tiny bit.

Have you consulted any books, articles before developing your application?
Followed any other design, already made?
Thanks

My accouting program uses WPF and as such I looked at various reference books on WPF including: Pro WPF, Pro C# with .NET 3.5 Framework, and a few others.
As for the accounting aspect, the entire program was written from scratch with only my ideas to work from. I did not consult any reference material for the creation of this program. I did however get more fine-tuned accounting details with regards to the accounting requirements for the program from other people.
As for the design, my application is one of a kind, and I have not seen another application similar to it in the market.

I haven't seen many articles on CP concerning advanced numerical methods, such as integral transforms, sparse matrix inversion, solving partial differential equations, high precision function approximations, specialized statistical functions, etc. I can reorganize and submit some of my stuff, since I've recently been converting a lot of my older code to C# as well as doing some benchmarking.
Is there any interest? Or would I be wasting my time?

This would be of huge interest to me. Bring it on - please.

OK, I'll start with some Laplace transform stuff I've been tweaking lately for a software update.
Where can I find the submission criteria? I found where to submit, but I don't see exactly how the material is supposed to be organized, etc.
Or maybe I'm just blind ...

Never mind. I think I found an article about articles. Just goes to show that, indeed, I was blind.

Dude. Read the forum name and guidelines. Does this look like frickin' ComponentSource.com to you?

You might get one of each, without documentation whatsoever.
Then you'll have to come up with an algorithm that lets you keep the right one.

Or just get some kind of chemical analysis tool that tells me the chemical makeup of the two and I keep the one that is the real cigar. Hopefully, not a false positive and be the exploding one

It seems that you are trying very hard to clean a bit this message board  .
It's amazing to see the number of people posting here with a programming question

Don't know if anyone can help... I can program a bit but not confidently at this level...
I want to take a peek at the contents of Vista's ShadowStorage/System Restore point files in System Volume Information...
Because of the way VSS (Volume ShadowCopy Service) works I believe that the (mountable!) file contains "duplicate" NTFS files structures and that shadowcopies are files that contain "overwritten" blocks re-linked into the original file's cluster chains (so the shadow copies in fact only contain differences, but if accessed as a mounted volume look like/are a complete file)
I want to compare the cluster chains (but not the data content) of shadowcopy files with the cluster chains of the originals so that I can see where the chains fork/join and calculate how much change (in blocks/clusters) is actually stored for each file in shadowstorage... [This blog (er...can't even work out how to paste a link here... sorry... its blogs.msdn.com/adioltean/archive/2008/02/28/a-simple-way-to-access-shadow-copies-in-vista.aspx) shows how to mount shadowcopies]
I know it would involve using deviceIOcontrol (and stuff <g>) but it's a bit beyond me... and I only have VBA to program in
Just wondered whether given all the cool stuff and people here something had already been written that would do the job or someone could get me going in the right direction...
TIA

Why a pie chart? Why not a croissant chart or a curry chart?

You certainly do, but I'm not a qualified psychologist so you're out of luck.
