On this extended weekend I have been able to make an application which works like The Original Digit Archive. I've used Microsoft Visual Basic 6 for designing the front end and connected it with Microsoft Access.
Updated to July 2009. Here is the download link.

The Zip contains two files :
* My Digit Archive v2.exe
* Archive.mbd
My Digit Archive
* Allows user to search the database according to Name, Month & Category.
* Displays the Details of the selected Software as : Month, Category & Year in which it was published.
* Source of my Database was monthly Contents uploaded on the Forum. So, Keeping the source in mind I couldn't implement the Type & Size of software.
Update
Provided a both Automatic and manual update through which the user can update the Database each Month. I Update my Database and offer it as a download from the Internet for other users.
Known Bugs
Presently Two in The Manual Update section, Archive works flawlessly :
1. Insert New Data: During Manual updation, The name cannot have ' (apostrophe). If it is entered, The Program crashes and exits. I guess its related to the 'String' during SQL insertion messing up.
2. Insert New Data : The Software names are separated using a NextLine. So, it is important to leave an extra Line after the last software name.
I'm currently doing BCA (3rd Year), All comments and suggestions are welcome...
