| Bio: |
Kasey K.S. Chang I've been playing with computers since Apple IIs (actually owned a //e for a while), and didn't get into PCs until college. During college, I got a summer job at a company and was exposed to Paradox 3.5. It also helps that Borland was one of this company's customers. I learned Paradox for DOS there, but never became quite good at it. When Paradox for Windows came out, I liked it immediately, and I started to build applications for the company with this wonderful new tool. The first project was a specifications database used to match up customers and their parts with the appropriate specifications and instructions (stored in Adobe Freehand files), and it just snowballed from there. Started adding custom reports, enhancing existing PDOXDOS Work-in-Progress (WIP) system, rewrote the whole system in Windows, converted the whole thing into a new Manufacturing-Resource-Planning (MRP) application, added/created new reports and such to keep the same paperwork despite the new system, added barcodes and such, interfaced this system with shipping system, with yet another shipping system, converted this MRP system into yet another MRP system (using Microsoft SQL server), put all this on the web (using Allaire/Macromedia Cold Fusion) and bazillion other projects, almost all done with Paradox.
I also do web design and web developement both as a hobby and professionally. I'm a pretty decent Allaire/Macromedia Cold Fusion developer, and trying to learn Java, VB, ASP, and JSP (keeps my brain filled).
I found the newsgroups while in college, and comp.databases.paradox soon after discovering Paradox. I enjoy helping people (I answer a LOT of PC related questions in the ZDNet Community Forums) and Paradox is something I'm pretty good at, so my notoriety started there. :-) Borland tried to recruit me once. Too bad they are just a bit too far from my house...
Like Laurie Macintosh, I was often mistaken for a female while on the net.
