Most people trying to build accounting programs lose a lot of money and time.
It's much much and much again more difficult than it seems.
My advice is always to buy in some professionally written software.

I would never get involved in that again myself, and I have some experience in databases and coding.

Hello Where can I find a good source for schemas in Access for doing accounting systems or simlar? I'm currently looking to develop some database tables for a simple accounting setup using invoices for customers and ordering new stock items etc. I've studied manual accounting as well as computerised accounting (in MYOB) some years ago in my course of studies but I'm very rusty with it.

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...

Let's talk about the concept of autonomous AI software engineers and no-code agents. These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention. Imagine an AI that can take a project description, break it down, write the code, debug it, and then launch it, all on its own.... Now, this would greatly impact the work of software developers.
