February Israel Visual Basic User Group Meeting
This month’s speaker is no stranger to IVBUG members, but the topics he is going to cover, may be relatively unknown to you. He is going to cover two different, interesting topics:
VB My Object productivity tool
The my object is a collection of tools and utilities that give the developer fast access, shortcuts and prepared code to a variety of useful day to day pieces of code used by every developer during the development process. Knowing about this object and using it wisely is a recipe for turbo bursting of a developer performance. Gad is going to cover most of the features of the my object and show the special integration between the my object and the Visual Studio 2005 Visual Basic IDE.
InfoPath as a Data Entry XML Transformer
InfoPath is one of the unknown programs in the Office family. It is part of the Office professional and enterprise editions since the introducing of office 2003 and many users don’t know about it. InfoPath is the perfect tool for transferring human form data to XML as the first step of any digital possessing of forms. InfoPath have rich programming interface but in most of the cases the basic built in capabilities eliminate the need of writing code at all. Gad is going to show the tip of the iceberg of a tool that is going to be one of your building blocks for any electronic data processing system you are going to build from now on.
As always, we'll have our special "Hatzilu" session at our meeting. So please come prepared to discuss your most frustrating problems (or at least some of them!) and to share some of your own techniques and solutions that you have found useful in your applications.
Please confirm your attendance.

About the speaker:
Gadi has worked in the computer industry for many years (his second computer language was assembly of PDP 8). His main specialty is using MSF (Microsoft solution framework) principles to identifying errors and problems in the development/deployment processes and procedures. His main goal is trying to prevent these types of problems in the project’s planning phase. Unfortunately he is usually summoned for the post mortem phase, a fact that leads directly to his second specialty which is analyzing dumps, blue screens and other low level plumbing tasks. His favorite function is to accompany a project as a technical consultant/guide. In this position he is exposed to a wide variety of interesting problems, where he then has to find creative solutions. Gad insists on teaching from time to time and he is currently the R&D Manager at IDAG ltd. (http://www.idag.co.il)
