I hope you have found a form or forms that will serve your purpose. You will find the software is intended for particular audiences, and may therefore not be for everyone. The software looks different but is easy to use. If you do not find what you are looking for, or if you have a project in mind, please email me at grumpydragonsoft@live.com.

About Me

As long as I can remember, there are two things I have always been passionate about: electronics and computers. My first experience with electronics was defective clock radio and I was curious about how it worked. I took it apart and learned what made up the different sections. This was way back when I was about 12 years old. My mother was throwing out. By trial and error, I found I could get it to run off a 9vdc battery with a few extra components from an old television. It worked! From then I was hooked. I started taking apart things to see how they worked and some I was able to put back together, others I couldn’t. And so began my love for the electron bug.

High school was my first exposure to the theory behind the magic, but the U.S. Army Signal Schools solidified the practical use; my job being a Microwave System Repairer. No, that doesn’t mean I worked on microwave ovens!

With the help of Uncle Sam, I went to school and graduated from college in Communications Electronics Technology and later on, I revisited school and graduated in Electronics Engineering. The years passed, yet my love for the electron bug never waned. In fact, I would become so involved in electronics, my wife used to make fun of me for I would ogle electronic part specifications as one would when looking at the Sports Illustrated magazine! (Whistle) “Look at the specs on that chip!”

Enter The Computer

I soon became fascinated with the capabilities of the personal computer. My first personal computer was the Commodore Amiga. Yes, I know, this was a while back, but just like your first real date, you don’t forget the feelings and emotions such memories bring. Anyway, with this computer, I dabbled in 3D graphics and rendering, audio sampling, and programming. I slowly moved (kicking and fighting) into the Windows era. At that time Windows was a slow, graphically challenged computer, yet it was what most people were using. And so, I too, jumped on the bandwagon. I will tell you, the first Windows OS computer I purchased, was returned the next day. I could not believe how impersonal the Windows OS was compared to the Amiga!

The Hand Held Device

Several years ago, I came across a neat little device, a palm sized computer that could hold so much information. This cool device fit in the palm of my hand and ran a basic form of Windows called Windows CE. The screen was touch and I used that device so much, I wore through two battery packs and finally the touch screen. From then on, I was hooked. I began buying other hand held devices with different operating systems. I finally zoned in on the Windows OS (Ironic isn’t it?).

To Create or not Create

Many of the programs I downloaded did not do what I wanted. They either covered areas I wasn’t interested in or didn’t have the fields I needed. I wanted software that held just the data I needed to have with me. I decided to try my hand at software for mobile devices.

My first software was a simple journal for the Dell X5, and later more complex forms such as what you see for Slum Lords. I even started creating software for the Blackjack II and the LG Incite. I want to continue at creating software for other types of mobile devices. This is where I hope you will provide me with your thoughts about what would be a good database application on your mobile device. Who knows, I may create it. If you find my software to be of use to you, please let me know. If not, still, let me know. Without feedback from users, I will not know if my software needs improvement.
