I understand. With biggies and for enterprises who need to have accounts separately for every purpose like 'Expense', 'Payroll' etc and for each department, this might befit. But for guys like me who just maintain about the Monthly Minimum Balance and rarely when there is some fund, just thinking of saving for the rainy day to put it into a Fixed Deposit and with a specific clause in Term Deposit like 'Credit Interest to Savings Account' and all other KYC (Know Your Custoemr) guidelines as applicable from the savings account, I think this would be like a laughing stock. Isn't it?
Furthermore, in these regions, the Term Deposits had to be managed only in the same bank and most banks stipulate that a savings account is mandatory first to open a Term Deposit.

It is a typical client server system and I don't think there aren't big mainframes being used over these places.

I think it would be a real laughing stock to have a different database/system design for "biggies" and "small" customers.
Don't you think so?
If they have to implement the more general and complex design for some customers, then it makes sense that they would use it for all customers. To maintain two totally different systems would be a total disaster and a waste of effort.

Can't blame the software developers or the software development companies for it. They just do what they've been asked to do. I can tell you clearly that this has happened because of one or a bunch of half-wit managers who has given improper inputs to the developers.
It's funny that always the developers are the underdogs, no matter what.

This function is supposed to be called on the Set Focus event of textboxes in vb6

I'd be careful about posting chunks of code large enough to be readily recognized. If a clueful coworker discovers them you could end up in serious trouble.

Don't worry, we are only 2 in the development sector, me and my boss, and obviously he doesn't read The Code Project.com! 
Anyway, i am really tied of working with someone like this, i see no future here, and i am actually looking for another job.

You'd better hope that this continues. This site is rather famous you know, and google does tend to return results from here. I assume he does use google.

I don't think that codeproject forum is google-friendly.. I do a lot of googling everyday but I never saw any post of the codeproject *forum* in google result.. I did suggest about that once and I think cp guys are working on that thing now.

Not so much the forums as the site itself - and from there, just a quick click to the forums, and then a quick boot out of the door for the OP.

Oh yeah, I'd hire you in a flash. Especially as you have total respect for your line manager and are completely discreet when it comes to the publishing of in house code
The only thing unpredictable about me is just how predictable I'm going to be.

|

please tell me that the code that has been published doesn't contain an sa password aswell?
|

The database server doesn't exists anymore, and the sa psw is encripted in the code!

Holy cow!! That really is remarkable!

Well, having just read this post properly, I really hope you've changed the details of servers and passwords in here. I really really hope you wouldn't be so daft as to tell people what your servers were called and what their passwords are.

It's ok, the server doesn't exist anymore and the password is encrypted.

But you also posted the password decryption :P

Ok, his code is not up to your standard, but maybe that's why he becomes the boss. As a boss, he doesn't need to write good code. The worst boss could be someone who can actually write code and thinks he is much better at coding than his developers.

That's exaclly the problem!!! hehe, he actualy force me to work like him!
I had lengthy discussions with him for that.
Just for example, He keeps using Datatables against collection of custom objects, His reasons:
1: Datatables are fastest and lighter
1: I did a small benchmark code that loaded 10000 Customers to a datatable and to a collection of objects, Collection of objects loaded 3 to 5 times faster and consumed half the memory that datatable
So he switch his argument to:
2:Collection of object are not easily bindable!
2:So i created a collection that inherits BindingList, and showed him!
So he switched:
3:Collection of object are more insecure, becouse you can make mistakes when you fill them!
3:Customer.Name is always more secure that doing DTCustomers("Name")
So in his last chance hi sayd:
4:But collection of objects keeps the memory fragmented, while datatable is loaded in a single continuous block of memory
4:At that point i just say, ok, do whatever you want, you are the boss!!
Well, it's always like that. The other day i discused like 1 hour for this:
We was working on a project and he has done something like this
Dim MIObject as object
Do
If condition then MiObject = AnotherObject
Loop
MiObject.DoSomenthing
Of course the ide throws a warning becouse "MiObject" could be nothing. So tied of seen that warning, i replaced:
Dim MIObject as object by
Dim MIObject as object = Nothing
So, i spend 2 hour arguing with him, couse he was saying that "= Nothing" loaded the Class in memory and etc...
Or for example, i created a Class customer that we can use in every project, i pass the code to him, and when i get it back i see he made a Public Sub in a module like: "ChangeCustomerEmail(CusId as integer, Mail as String)", God Dammit!! for what the hell i did the customer class then?
So, this is how i work everyday, i am really tired.
