We were told to create an individual project for the C++ class I am attending. Given examples would be order system, school enrollment system, etc. This is only a 20-point assignment. Can anyone pitch-in some ideas, please?

I would love to do some real-world data-centric Windows App. What's a good idea?

 start by looking at sourceforge.net :) you'll get a lot of examples there.

Exercise the power of C++ template :)

1. Use DTL for database: http://dtemplatelib.sourceforge.net/
2. Use STL for most of your containers/algorithms.
3. Use boost! http://www.boost.org
4. Use WTL for your windowing: http://wtl.sourceforge.net/
    or wxWidget (http://www.wxwidgets.org/) if you want your application to be cross-platform.

With these, you can create almost anything you want to write with C++ easily.

My most recent project using the above is "Patient Record Database" of a medium-size hospital :)

Cheers,
