FYI to Everyone:

Steve has made the source code (VC++ 7.1 solution) for this project available in a ZIP file from http://www.sqlservercentral.com/products/mcoles/default.asp.

Compilation of some parts requires Boost Library source (in particular the Regular Expression extended procedures require Boost).  Boost source is available for free download at http://www.boost.org/.

If you do download and compile the source, I highly recommend downloading the latest Platform SDK from http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=A55B6B43-E24F-4EA3-A93E-40C0EC4F68E5&displaylang=en.

I've also been asked several times about the license for this toolkit.  Here it is:

DBA Toolkit License

The DBA Toolkit is composed of my original source code, and/or other source code that the original authors have placed in the public domain.  Credit has been given throughout the source code to those original authors, and their original licensing agreements have been maintained in the source code where appropriate.

You are free to use this source code and binaries however you want, modify it however you like, and use it for any purpose you like, personal or commercial.  All I ask is two things:

1.  If you redistribute the source code, modified or unmodified, give me a shout out in the comments or something

2.  If you do something really cool and make big and/or useful improvements, consider sharing it with the rest of the world (this is not mandatory, but it is the nice thing to do).  I'm particularly interested in the improvements people make to the source, and always appreciate the feedback.

Obviously the Boost Library is covered by Boost's own licensing agreement which you will need to observe if you decide to use the portions of code that interface with it (the Regular Expression functionality).  And Microsoft has their own licensing agreements you might need to review when before distributing programs compiled using the Platform SDK.
