Hello Professionals! Hopefully you can help me out. Please tell me what programming language should be used. I am interesting in having software developed capable of doing the following things; - Have an _active layer on the desktop background_ (_clickable_ on certain points to input inforomation in that certain field) - Be _Transparent_ ; semi-Transparent - Main program options and menus accessible via _system tray_ (bottom right) - Having the ability to _**sync** to MS applications_ (i.e. Outlook and its email or tasks, etc) I have two different friends who are programmers who gave some comments. The _first friend said to use .NET Visual Basic_ especially for ability to sync with Outlook. The _second friend said C++_ would be best to use. He also said do NOT use Java because of complications that can occur with type of software. Please, I'd really appreciate any feedback on this. Thank you! ## Deliverables 1) Complete and fully-functional working program(s) in executable form as well as complete source code of all work done. 2) Deliverables must be in ready-to-run condition, as follows (depending on the nature of the deliverables): a) For web sites or other server-side deliverables intended to only ever exist in one place in the Buyer's environment--Deliverables must be installed by the Seller in ready-to-run condition in the Buyer's environment. b) For all others including desktop software or software the buyer intends to distribute: A software installation package that will install the software in ready-to-run condition on the platform(s) specified in this bid request. 3) All deliverables will be considered "work made for hire" under U.S. Copyright law.
