When our team recieves a new request to design an application (web based or console based), the various components to be created are split out accordingly among us. 

... So what are my roles ?

On recieving the component, I am to organise my methods and insert appropriate coding (using the .NET environment), which will allow the functions do their tasks. 

Upon completion, I have to run a test, which will check the component does the task correctly, without inducing bugs at any stage.

In some cases, I am required to build a Dynamic Linked Library (DLL) which contains all the necessary functions for a particular development of a project. Upon completion, the API documentation is produced which contains a reference to all methods and attributes with descriptions.  (almost like java...those who are familiar with this)

So whats the Latest work You have been involved in?

Recently a proposal was made to our department to design a portal using Microsoft Sharepoint. Sharepoint allows users to customise a web portal according to their needs, allows sending emails, creating alerts, etc.  After the design stage which was carried out by other members of the team.  This was followed by the implementation, where I was asked to design components that would fulfill some of the requirements that were proposed. 

So what were the requirements proposed ?

One of the requirements stated by the head of department  was :    All user's username and password should be similar to the values used by them when logging in to their Windows NT sessions.  Although it may sound simple at this instance, the complications behind it are immense.  *

Hence, the only solution we had was to develop hard coded functions which would automatically execute when new users were created.  This function would run a search on the Win NT database and check for the particular user's detail, then run a search on the details they entered at time of application, if a match was found then the account creation would be succesful. 

Some other functions include : Changing user passwords, creating/modifying user rights etc, creating/modifying site rights and cross group rights.   

*Although sharepoint allows users to create new users manually, this is not what we intend to achieve - but rather programatically.
