Visit our new web pages
We have launched a new extended set of web pages at www.alvechurchdata.co.uk. These old pages will stay on the server because people still have links to them but they will not be updated.
The new version of this page is at www.alvechurchdata.co.uk/hints-and-tips/default.aspx.

Hints and Tips for Developers
We have had a lot of help over the years from other programmers; people we've worked with and people whom we've only met through on-line support forums. We'd like to repay their help by passing on some hints and tips from our own experience.
