vital information. Information is categorized and each category has
its own problem, solution and effect. There is a problem solver module
that gives solutions depending on consultant and problem area. The
system used Oracle 8 for data storage. PL/SQL was used to create
tables, views, procedures etc. as well as certain constraints as
Primary Key, Unique, and Foreign key. User interface was provided with
Visual Basic. Here a number of already available ActiveX controls were
used such as Toolbox, StatusBar, Image List, DbCombo, Grid Control
etc. along with the standard controls. Data was accessed by ADO using
OLE-DB provider. ActiveX DLL was used to package complex routines
using Class Modules. Error Handlers were used to trap errors. The
reports generated were using crystal reports as well the reports for
problem solver made use of TreeView and Listview Control for getting a
view of all the solution category in a hierarchy. To make the system
more useful to people connected over net information could be
collected on-line and stored in the database, the reports could also
be send to authorized persons. For this purpose ASP was used.
       Designed and built a mapping table utilized to import data to a
Oracle database .Use of HTML, Cascading Style sheet  was also
necessary for this purpose. IIS Application project using Web Class-
this feature of VB was used. IIS server served the purpose of running
and testing ASP modules. Online help was provided using the tool for
the purpose. Debugging was done using a VB tool.

format that makes it convenient for the user to send mails directly
using MAPI and also access on the Internet. The application involved
Web database connectivity using ASP. The system was developed in VB
6.0 as Front-end. The user interface was made through Forms which used
a number of a number of ActiveX controls shipped with VB which include
Toolbox, StatusBar, Image List, DbCombo, Grid Control, MAPI controls
etc.) . The data was stored in a database server which in this case
was Oracle 7.1. Data Access method was ADO by using OLE-DB provider.
ActiveX DLL was used to package complex routines using Class Modules.
Error Handlers were used to trap errors. There was a special module in
which the data was collected and they replaced the bookmarks of a
formerly prepared word documents such as replacing directly the name,
address, salary etc. in an agreement letter and at the click of a
Print button the letter is printed with the details of the candidate
selected. OLE automation control made the video, audio and photo
scanning possible.  To make the system Web enabled most of the objects
of ASP were used and finally the ASP, HTML modules were tested on IIS
server. An online Help was also made with the tool available with VB.

make the system visually appealing to the user. Making it an IIS
enabled application facilitates an on-line Internet tutor on variety
of applications to users. The database was stored in MS Access 97. The
Primary Key and other constraints and relationships were put on each
Table in database file. The process of accessing data was through ADO
using Jet Engine Provider 3.5. In the story writing section a user can
select an effect or a control (Designed using ActiveX control or DLL).
The control is positioned and there is a facility given to drag it to
the point the control is to be moved and this manner the position of
the control can be recorded. Or if in an effect you want to move a
control from one point to another then position for that is also
recorded. Extensive use of ActiveX controls and DLL is done to provide
the user with maximum effects and controls. An option is also provided
for recording bitmaps or any picture files, sound, Rich Text Files.
Each story can be compiled, played and distributed. API procedures
were used for some features such as SetWindowsPos, PlaySound etc. API
viewer provided the appropriate declarations for the Window API
procedures. Error Handlers were used to trap errors. Debug tools of
Visual Basic were used. And also help was provided using the tool for
