I love developing functions, controls and business apps with Excel. I think Excel is one of the most revolutionary products for business in the last 30 years. So I am always using the developer tab. I skipped Excel/Office 2003 and in Excel/Office 2007 & 2010 you have to enable the developer tab.
I upgraded recently to Office 2010 and need to create a button in Excel and behold MS moved the developer check box. I almost cried (ok not really)…
A little bit of a search and you can find the instructions here (also tells you how to enable on Office 2010/2007) or just use my walk through.

Microsoft reveled this week Visual Studio LightSwitch, which is a rapid application development (RAD) environment for business applications. Or simply a really cool code generator. I think this is a great product idea for a few reasons and mostly because I do RAD or at least try to do RAD business apps.

I decided or maybe have been forced to move from VB.NET to C# because it is just easier to find resources. Like a man starving or thirsty, I am going where the food and water seems to be. No matter how much I really like VB.NET and it very readable syntax C# has the mindshare behind it at Microsoft.
