Welcome to JLION.COM

I'm Joe Lynds and I've created this web site to host various musings and explorations having to do with programming and computers in general.

Please feel free to look around. I hope you find something of interest. If you do, I'd love to hear from you!

SQLAutoDoc is an automated database dictionary for SQL Server. It consists of tables, stored procedures and web reports and provides functionality much like the 'description' column in Microsoft Access, combined with the Access Database Documenter.

SQLAutoDoc will periodically poll all of the databases on the server on which it is installed for new tables, stored procedures and views. Informative descriptions can then be associated with them to assist you in documenting your database.

Use jFont to preview and print font maps.

jFont outputs a character map that includes the ASCII font set (33-255) for any installed font as an RTF document that can be viewed and printed with most any word processing application such as Word or Wordpad.
