U.S. ENGLISH VERSION


Welcome to my Software Page, where you can find all programs that I have made so far.

I have for a while now developed Freeware computer software with Visual Basic. Here you can find information about, and get the opportunity to download, all my programs. If you didn´t came from there, be sure to visit my main home page or its U.S. Mirror Site as well.

FastConvert 1.0 Beta (updated version)

FastConvert is a small, but practical, utility to convert values between the American and Metric scales of different units. For instance, you can convert between Celsius and Fahrenheit, or between kilometers and miles. All units is available on the same screen - no problems to find what you´re looking for. Everything is selfexplanable and easy-to-use. This is a limited beta version of the software without a manual, and with a very limited help file. The official version will be available during the fall 1998, I apologize for the delay. This updated Beta version fixes some bugs with the original version. However, the program is the same, why it´s released under the same version number. The program is available, in the same archive, in both English and Swedish.

System requirements:

The program has not been tested with Windows 95/NT, but should work fine.)

Download the program!

Video Memory Utility

This is a small and very simple utility to help you determine how much video memory you need. With the program, you can just enter a resolution and the amount of colors you want, and the program will right away tell you exactly how much Video RAM you need. Since it is VERY small, I recommend it.
Please note! This program requires the Visual Basic Runtime Library, VBRUN300.DLL. Because of the size of the file, and the fact that it can take a while to download, I have decided against including it. Therefore, you MUST have this file before you can use the program (the file is not included). However, most people already have this file, and if you don´t, you can get it almost everywhere (from FTP sites on the Internet, BBS´es, user groups, Shareware libraries, et cetera. Check out any FTP archive, such as Winsite, to find this file. Note! Users of Windows 95 should already have this file, since it is included with Windows 95.

The program is available in two versions. Click on the version you want to download:
VIDEO1.ZIP (37 KB): The normal version, which needs to be installed. After you´ve unzipped the file, run SETUP to install the program on your hard disk, and install icons and groups for the program (in the Program Manager or the Start Menu). This is the recommended version if you´re no expert on computers.
VIDEO2.ZIP (4 KB): The raw version of the program, with no Install. The program is not packed, and can be ran directly after you´ve unzipped the file. Just run the file VIDEO.EXE to run the software. With this version, no icons or program groups can be created automatically, but if you know computers, you perhaps prefer this version anyway. (And yes, you read correctly: This version is only 4 KB big!)

Ordjakten 1.0 Beta (Only in Swedish!)

Ordjakten is a simple but fun word game for Windows. This is an early beta version, which only is in Swedish. The official version will be in both English and Swedish. Please hold on...For more information of theis Beta version, please visit the Swedish Software Page.

Kaleidoscope Screen Saver

A small but beautiful screen saver for Windows 3.1/95/98/NT. It displays a kaleidoscope on the screen. Try it out! You will need the Visual Basic runtime library VBRUN300.DLL, but probably you already have it.

Coming soon:

SuperPad, v1.0

A very useful notepad-like text editor, which allows you, for instance, to import DOS text files and save files in both Windows and DOS formats. This can be very useful, for everyone who hates the fact that text files cannot be copied between DOS and Windows directly (since they use different character sets). SuperPad is available within soon as Freeware.


DiaryWriter, v1.0

This is, as it sounds, an electronic diary which you can use as a diary, journal or similar. Unlike the normal (not-computerized) versions this version has nice search functions as well as advanced password protection - No one can access your journals without the proper password. The files will be saved encrypted as well, so no one can´t even read the files directly (without the program). Each diary (you can create as many as you like) can contain up to 365 pages, and every page can contain as much as 10 KB text (about 10 000 letters). Easy to use, so even beginner´s can start using the program right away. DiaryWriter will work on most operating systems (Windows 3.0/3.1/95/98/NT) with very low system requirements. DiaryWriter is available within soon as Freeware.

More programs will also be available here within soon (during early 1999).

If you´re interested in acting as a beta tester for any program (any program featured on this page, or any other program that I have made), please contact me and we´ll talk about it further. This is a nice chance for you to use programs that no one else has yet! I need beta testers both for the new programs (written under Coming soon) and the ones that is already available. I also need Beta testers for programs not mentioned on this page...

All programs programmed and created by Daniel Hofverberg, using Microsoft Visual Basic 3.0 Professional Edition.
