This week I have been working on moving the address details away from organisation, volunteer and opportunities tables to a table which will only hold details about addresses. By using this method, organisation, volunteer and opportunities objects would have an ID of address which they refer to. The moving of address details will help us when we come to implementing some future user stories.

We finally got Expression Blend which we ordered a few weeks ago. Microsoft Expression Blend is Microsoft’s user interface design tool for creating rich graphical interfaces for web and desktop applications that blend the features of these two types of applications.

With Expression Blend we will be able to produce an interface which will make you say WOW! and in half the time it would take if you were using Visual Studio to design the interface.

Today I will be learning LINQ.  LINQ is a Microsoft .NET Framework component that adds native data querying capabilities to .NET languages using a syntax reminiscent of SQL.

From next week, will be off until 21st May. Until then adios!
