Here's some specifications for things that I want to write but I haven't got
the time.

* A Regular Expression tester: should create
System.Text.RegularExpressions.Regex objects, and have two text boxes, one
for inputting the pattern for the regex, and another to input a string to
test it against. Should have a nice method of displaying what matches have
been found together with their positions, and any explicit/numbered captures
if there are any. Any regular expression options you think are relevant
should be controllable by means of checkboxes.

As an optional extra, it should have a file/folder selector, in order to do
a regular expression replace in either a single file or a whole folder full
of files, with the option of recursive directory search or not. Also, the
option to save 'favorite' regular expressions should be available, with the
option of registry or .dat file storage.

* A SQL server disk utilisation reporting tool: should have a server
component to be run installed and run on SQL servers, which could basically
consist just of a console application which provides a remote object. There
should then be a client program, which has a list of all the servers (this
should be able to be manually maintained in some way and persisted on
application exit), it then 'dials round' each one, by means of instantiating
a remoting object, the remoting object should then provide the information
the client program needs to generate an excel workbook containing a separate
sheet for each server, each server's sheet to be showing:
- a 'stacked column' chart showing a column for each drive on the
particular server, the filled in bit obviously representing the amount of
used space, and
- a pie chart for each drive, showing the amount taken up by each file.
System files (i.e. non-.mdf and non-.ldf files), and files smaller than a
certain specifiable size, should be able to be grouped together as one slice.
Make it so it's one workbook per server if you like, with one sheet for the
column chart and one sheet for each drive if that's easier.

Delivered with installers and comments please, to benjtaylor at hotpop dot
com.

Thanks

I agree this is a nice exercise, but did you have a look at expresso or
regulator?
These tools do exactly that.
