Overall functionality
• I need a very simple VB project done.
• All I want is a full screen, maximised window to appear and then disappear a little while later.
• The window will show some text, a couple of images and a digital countdown clock showing minutes and seconds.
• When the window closes, the program will open a browser window pointing at a URL that will be hardcoded within the VB code.
• The program must automatically start when Windows is started
Variability
• I need to be able to change the text and the images using a simple text editor such as Notepad or the Express Edition of Microsoft Visual Basic 2005.
• I will also want to be able to change various settings within the VB code easily by simply changing flag values.
Installation file
• I need an easy way of creating an executable version of the VB project that I will have modified (new text, images, flag settings).
• I also need an easy way of creating a downloadable executable installation file.
• During installation the user will be able to set file location and set values for two settings. A default location will be provided and the folder created if it does not already exist.
• The installation will create
o the main program
o a start menu folder
o a task bar icon that shows upto two digits.(the digits will show a minute by minute countdown)
o the task bar icon will also have a small menu associated with it
• Many of the menu options for both the start menu and the task bar icon menu will open a browser window pointing to a specific page but one will allow the user to change the settings set during program installation. Others will start / stop the program.
More detailed specifications will be given to the selected programmer.
