Hello,
I am not sure if this is allowed or not - if this post is against any Rules i apologize in advance and this post can be removed.
I am in the process of creating a open-source project to track the Psychological Mood of a person, this application will be used by people visiting psychologists.
Target Audience
People that are currently in therapy or want to keep track of mood changes. The program is based on CBT.
Aim
To provide to the end-user the tools for him to be able to monitor his mood.
To provide to the therapist additional information for the client through the automatic generation of graphs.
I am looking for some volunteers to help me with Coding of the Project. I am doing the coding in Visual Basic 2010 and currently using MS Access 2007 as the Database. I have many plans to make this is a feature-rich application with the aim to help the end-user.
The Project is hosted on CodePlex; http://moodtracker.codeplex.com
If anyone is interested please feel post here.
Looking for developers to help in free and opensource project

Hello,
Over the past week we've been actively discussing about this program with the developers that have volunteered to help.
This is just a reminder that if there are any VB.NET Developers that are interested to help out with this program then feel free to either reply here, PM me or apply directly at http://moodtracker.codeplex.com.
Thanks in advance!

Sorry, can't spare the time but I would offer a suggestion about your data storage. Do not use MS Access MDB for any new project. Jet has been depreciated by MS (Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0 in Windows 7 64 bit is not available). If this is an application for general use, you will find W7 64bit to be a common platform you will need to support.
The recommended data store technology for single user desktop databases is Microsoft SQL Server Compact Edition. The new version 4 is available, and with VS2010 SP1 you get tools to create and manage data files and IDE integration. SQLCE is embedded so no extra runtime or database server installs needed, you just add the SQLCE dll's to your installer. I've used it and it works well! See here:

Good Luck!

We are currently considering the use of this database and we will probably be using this one instead of Access.

Hi there,
I would definitely support the use of SQL CE as a start as it also scales well to full SQL server and/or make collaboration/syncing with full SQL easier.
N-Tier-Application design (google - loads of examples) is something worth getting to grips with as part of the planning stage before moving much further forward. N-Tier design and implementation will make many aspects easier and more flexible as the App develops.
It provides clear demarcation and can allow for rapid redevelopment of a whole layer minimising the chances of overlooking something. It would also allow you to build multiple DAL's (Data Access Layers) which could deal with connecting to different Data Stores etc, or redesign PL's (Presentation layers) without worrying about destabilising the underlying code.

Is SQL CE fully supported by the Netduino MF?

No, x86/x64 only.
Thanks EMG, now that makes me curious, do you know of any alike SQL database available for the Netduino MF?
I have used EffiProz for a Silverlight project that is C# native and I used it to store data from a remote SQL server database into the Isolated Storage (A special folder in the C:\ Hard Drive).
Interesting topic.
