  3. While in Copenhagen, Denmark recently I had the pleasure to meet and chat with Niels Virring Martensen and Per Rasmussen of Cepa Mobility, a small company dedicated to making mobile products for people with Disabilities. Niels is the managing director and Per is the lead software developer/architect. Per is disabled and with one hand (via a joystick on his wheelchair) he*is able*to*produce the great code that runs CepaCom. * From Cepa's website: CepaCom is a*discrete mobile communicator which has been designed for people with special needs. Even though you might be highly motor disabled, you now have the opportunity to communicate on your own - anytime, anywhere. With CepaCom you are able to choose between these features: Speech machine (Text-to-Speech) Contact your family and friends using the phone functionality. Text Messages Keep track of your contacts Media Player: Listen to E-books and music* The different "modules" can be purchased seperately. If you only need the Speech Machine and Media Player, this is what you pay for and recieve. It was an honor a pleasure to meet such innovative and capable people. They are doing great things at Cepa and really changing the world for people with disabilities by producing software and systems that enable independence and communication freedom. See the CepaCom*demo here. Listen to the podcast(MP3) Listen to the podcast(WMA) Download the Video Watch the Video More... View All Our Microsoft Related Feeds

  7. I needed to write a quick test application this morning. Fired up VS2005, went through the steps to create a Windows MFC application as I've done many times before then noticed there were no source files in the project. Closed VS and did the whole process again. Still no source files. Tried to add an MFC based class and had an error that this was not an MFC project. Next I tried the same thing on VS2008. Same problem. I can't seem to create an VC++ projects. I can load in and compile an old C++ project and I can create new C# projects not a problem. This is the first time I have created a MFC app from scratch in the last month so can't narrow it down to anything really. Anyone have any ideas? Am currently uninstalling then reinstalling VS2008 to see if that fixes things. Cheers Andy More... View All Our Microsoft Related Feeds
