Borland Delphi

Mostly (still) version 5 but also later versions, including 2005, if necessary. I'm not using Delphi 2005 for .NET work because I find (for the first time ever) Microsoft's Visual Studio better and more reliable. Also, C# is a really nice language.

For Delphi development, I use a number of VCL libraries, e.g. Raize Components, TurboPower (unfortunately does not exist as a company anymore, the code still works fine though), TeeChart, MADcollection, Plasmatech etc.

Microsoft's Visual Studio 2003

Used for development of .NET, ASP.NET and .NET/CF applications. I have never been able to come to terms with C++ (too ugly) or Visual Basic (too loose), so I use C#.

Pocket PC

I started developing applications for the Pocket PC (Pocket PC 2002) using embedded Basic but quickly switched to Visual Studio and .NET Compact Framework when that became available. I have developed two (serious) Pocket PC applications:

• Dialset see http://mapro.skf.com. Select Maintenance knowledge and then from the menu select Download
  
  
• Pocket Profile See http://www.rollprof.com, menu item 'Software'.
  This is the 'baby' brother to the desktop version PC Profile. It has only a limited amount of the capabilities of its bigger brother but it has one big advantage: it allows the user to upload and view the measurement results from the Rollprof directly after measurement, in-situ. And if the Pocket PC is connected to a network (through WiFi), the data can be automatically uploaded to a desktop computer and, optionally, printed.
  

National Instruments LabWindows/CVI and LabView

Used at times when customers require it. This is generally the case when the user wants an application he/she can later easily adapt, which is what LabView (with its visual way of working) is perfectly suited for.
