tools · notes · fragments
A quiet workshop for small useful things.
Utilities, code fragments, and field notes from a one-person IT department. Built to solve a real problem, kept here in case they solve yours.
Tools
all 6 tools →A lightweight WinForms control that paints a grid of month calendars with its own hand. Drop it on a form, set how many months across and down, and it draws the rest.
File ForcerA patient little watcher that overwrites a locked file with your master copy the instant it's free. Point it at a target, walk away, and it lands the swap the moment nothing's holding the file open.
MyDesktopOrganizerSet rules once, and your desktop tidies itself every week — aging files swept into folders by type and archived into dated weekly folders.
Case Studies
all case studies →A quick-glance transfer tool for lot- and serial-tracked inventory — scan a trace lot, see every warehouse and location currently holding it with quantities, and move it in one step through VISUAL's own API.
Work Order Wizard (W.O.W.)Turn one planned quantity into several VISUAL work orders in one pass — propose an even split, adjust it in a grid, create every order through VISUAL's own API.
