After 19 years, I've finally decided to revive one of my oldest projects, Data Project. Data Project started in 2007/08 as part of my FusionScape Ultra Edition. Eventually, it became a separate program. 

The purpose of Data Project was to give you a single place to store things like research, documents, files, videos, pictures, etc., and to provide a very convenient way to transfer files. Data Project was originally written in a combination of VB.NET and C#.NET (the former since I started in VB.NET, but learned C# halfway through the development of Data Project).

Data Project was built alongside three other major projects: Painter Pro, Wonderword, and Cobweb, and it utilised components from each of them through my cleverly designed Balfour's Business Class Library. 

Anyway, enough history. The new version, version 2027 (or version 2.1), is designed from the ground up with the same concept. It's built in Java this time for both cross-platform compatibility and to use my Macro Editor feature in ZPE. It's already taking shape, too, thanks to BalfLaf, which has revolutionised the way UIs are developed.
