Protect Yourself From Disaster With VB Project Archiver! * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * Dear Visual Basic Programmer, Say you're in the middle of some really important Visual Basic programming when all of a sudden, up pops the dreaded "Application Error" message! Just what you needed. So, you can either Close your app or Ignore the problem and continue. Some choice, right? So, you go and select Ignore, but before you save your code, you think: if I save now, will I be saving garbage over my latest save? (It can happen!) When did I last save? Have I backed up the code lately? If you're like most people, you haven't backed up your code for 2 weeks, and you've made several major changes. What do you usually do? You quickly drop into DOS (or, if you're daring, you use the File Manager) and copy all of the files to another subdirectory, or maybe even to a floppy (which you probably have to format), but all this time you're thinking: did I backup all of the files? Did I include the MAK file? (Which you forgot the last time this happened.) Did I leave out a form that was from another subdirectory? So you go and backup everything (heck, you might even start backing up entire directories to make sure!), but what a time waster. And the stress? Forget it! Debugging at 3AM on the day before a demo is stressful enough, you don't need this! What you need is VB Project Archiver. When you have the VB Project Archiver icon sitting on the bottom of your screen you'll never again worry about losing your work. Here's why: 1. VB Project Archiver will archive and backup your Visual Basic project while you work. One click will take all of your code and form modules used in your project and save them into a compressed project archive file. It couldn't be simpler (especially with the on-line context-sensitive help)! 2. VB Project Archiver will also include any Windows DLLs or Visual Basic Custom Controls (VBXs) used by your project - automatically! That's right, VB Project Archiver gets this information from the project itself, requiring no effort on your part. I can't tell you how many times I've left out an important DLL when giving out my applications. 3. VB Project Archiver can create a "distributable" project archive which contains the EXE file, any DLLs you may be using, and (now here's the cool part) will replace your design-time Custom Controls with their run-time versions - automatically! Not only that, but VB Project Archiver will make sure that your EXE file is up-to-date, so you don't give someone an outdated version. 4. Use VB Project Archiver for version-control! With its exclusive Auto-Increment feature, VB Project Archiver makes it easy to store multiple versions of your project, so if you ever mess up, you can just go back to a previous version contained in a project archive file! And since it's so easy to archive your project, you'll have no problem doing it often. VB Project Archiver was created to solve a basic software development problem: keeping your code safe without wasting your valuable time. I believe so strongly that VB Project Archiver will help you become more productive and sleep better at night that I'll give you a 30 day money-back guarantee. Don't like it? Return it within 30 days and I'll promptly refund your money (minus shipping charges). No questions asked. How can you lose? For only $69.95 (plus shipping and handling), you can get VB Project Archiver and stop worrying about losing your work!
