C# programming language

You are here:

I have done some work programming in C# at Triton Technology Ltd. and then Lacerta Technology Ltd..

When we developed the software for the identiPol QA we used Vb.Net which was the logical choice as I already had extensive experience using VB6 and VBA and some code that could be adapted. Our hardware/firmware designer had more experience with C than with Basic based languages though so he chose to develop some of the in-house testing and configuration software using C#, and later I helped continue to develop and maintain some of these systems as well as adapt some of the code for use in our main software products.

If you are wanting any programming work doing, either debugging and fixing old systems or developing new software, please do get in touch.

Triton Technology Ltd.

I worked for Triton Technology Ltd. as software and IT manager for many years and continued to work for Lacerta Technology Ltd. which was formed from what remained after the company was sold to Mettler Toledo.

Lacerta Technology Ltd.

Lacerta Technology Ltd. design and manufacturer scientific instruments, in particular devices to aid in the measurement and characterisation of polymers using thermal analysis and related techniques. The company was formed out of what remained when the previous company Triton Technology Ltd. was sold to Mettler Toledo.

Visual Basic .Net

When Triton Technology developed the new identiPol QA instrument we took the opportunity to move to the latest software development environment for Microsoft Windows which was .NET. As we already had a lot of software written in VB6 I decided to implement the new software in Vb.Net.

Microsoft Visual Basic

I first worked with Visual Basic on a project for Transco with Keane. This was probably VB5. I later worked extensively with VB6 at Triton Technology and Lacerta Technology.

VBA is a version of Visual Basic embedded in Microsoft's Office suite of programs. I have worked mainly with VBA in Excel.

C++ programming language

I worked programming in C++ at Polymer Laboratories when they were taken over by Rheometrics Scientific and I continued working in C++ at my next job at Consort Securities.

BASIC programming language

I taught myself to program in BASIC on the ZX81 and Commodore 64 home computers. Since then I have programmed in various versions of the language including Microsoft QuickBasic, VB6, VBA and Vb.Net
