Source Code
Source Code for Final Release
The above zip file contains the source code for the final release of the project. It contains the final database/schema, form design, algorithms, etc. It is the exact same program that can be downloaded above, except downloading this .zip file will give one access to the entire VS2008 solution, as opposed the simple ability to run the created program.

Pilot Program - Multiple Functions and Scaffolding Code
The above zip file contains the initial "proof of concept" and walkthrough solution, basically a single form plus a test database to demonstrate adding and dropping players from a roster, calculating team averages, etc. A readme file is included in case one wants to assemble and execute this form, as a certain procedure needs to be followed.

Rough Interface Design - Program That Works in a Sloppy Way
The above zip file contains source code for the initial "completed" version of my project. It includes rough drafts of the user interface, select-a-league form, league and team creation, player drafting, etc. While the code technically accomplishes its assigned tasks, it does so in a way that is fairly inefficent from a program flow/look point of view, hence this version served as the skeleton for the final release, again plugging functions from this program into the release. A readme file is included in case one wants to assemble and execute this form, as a certain procedure needs to be followed.
