I have a software, written in MS Access, database is MS SQL (used through ODBC), the code itself is Visual Basic for Applications. I want to rewrite this software on a modern, web based platform, using ASP.NET Core MVC, .NET 10, Entity Framework 10 etc. The software stores extras (background artists, walk-ons) for movies. The persons have tens of various data (contact details, physical details, abilities, billing details etc.), photos. The system allows the creation and modification of these data, allows querying based on all available attributes, allowes complex queries etc. The persons can be allocated to productions (movies), providing some extra information, like casting numbers, category/role, fee etc. There are approx. 15 reports in the system. The total work is estimated is approx. 600 hours, using AI to convert some of the code. So it is a requirement to use AI to minimizte the need of manual rewriting of code. I will provide a description of how the new solution should be built up, what kind of projects do we want, what kind of technologoes to be used etc. I prefer to work in weekly sprints, so for each week I would define the set of tasks to be done. The whole project should be completed in max. 16 weeks, starting mid of May. Of course, I can share the MS Access application and also a DB copy with those applicants where I see a serious chance to make an agreement. The MS Acess solution is in Hungarian language, so it is expected that you use some language translation to understand the frontend. But I can also help with this. I won't bee too complicated.

You’re moving a production-used casting database from Access into a structured web system where reliability and fast querying matter more than UI flash. The real challenge is preserving data integrity while translating years of implicit logic into something maintainable. I’d approach this by first mapping your existing schema + VBA logic into EF models and service layers, then incrementally rebuilding core workflows (person management, allocation, querying) in ASP.NET MVC. AI can accelerate form logic and report conversion, but I’d validate outputs to avoid hidden logic gaps—especially in complex filters and report calculations. I’d also normalize search into a flexible query layer to handle your “many attributes” filtering cleanly and efficiently. I’ve handled similar migrations (Access → modern stack) where the key win was reducing fragile logic and improving query performance without breaking workflows. Weekly sprint structure works well here. Q1: Which parts of VBA contain the most business-critical logic (reports, allocation, billing)? Q2: Are reports export-only or interactive/filterable in the new system? Q3: How large is the dataset (records + images)?

Hi, I reviewed your MS Access → ASP.NET Core migration project. You’re essentially modernizing a legacy casting/extras management system into a scalable web app with complex search, reporting, and production assignments. I’ve built similar data-heavy systems and migrated legacy desktop tools into ASP.NET Core + EF Core platforms, including systems with advanced filtering, relational data, and reporting layers. I’m also comfortable using AI-assisted refactoring to speed up conversion and reduce manual rewrite effort while keeping structure clean and maintainable. My approach would be simple: Rebuild core data model first (people, productions, assignments) Implement fast advanced search + filtering (this is the heart of your system) Migrate reports in phases Use weekly sprints to match your 16-week plan Keep UI clean, functional, and performance-focused for large datasets A few quick questions: Q1 – Do you want Razor/MVC only or a richer frontend (React/Blazor)? Q2 – Any role-based access levels needed for different users? Q3 – Which reports are “must-have” in the first release? If this is a fit, I can start by reviewing your Access DB and defining a clean migration structure.

Hi, This is a serious migration project, and the right approach is to treat the MS Access system as the source of business logic, not just an old UI to replace. I’d rebuild it in ASP.NET Core MVC with Entity Framework, SQL Server, clean service/repository layers, role-based access, advanced filtering, photo management, production allocation, and report generation. The first step should be a technical audit of the Access/VBA app and SQL schema, then we can convert module by module: people database, production allocation, advanced search, photos, billing-related fields, and reports. AI can help speed up VBA understanding and conversion, but I would still validate the logic manually so the new system behaves correctly. I’ve worked on production .NET/database systems and large data-driven platforms before, so my focus would be accuracy, maintainability, and avoiding a risky “big bang” rewrite. Weekly sprints make sense here. Each sprint should produce testable functionality, so you can compare the new web version against the existing Access system step by step.

I'm well-versed in weekly sprint methodologies and can adapt quickly to your preferred workflow, ensuring transparency and regular progress updates. To address the language aspect, I am comfortable using translation tools and collaborating closely with you to clarify any nuances in the Hungarian-language frontend. I am confident that, with your guidance, we can accurately interpret the existing system’s logic and user interfaces. Once I’ve reviewed your MS Access application and database, I will propose an optimal migration strategy, ensuring all functionalities—including data management, photo handling, production assignments, and reporting—are fully realized in the new platform. Thanks for considering my application. I look forward to the opportunity to collaborate and deliver a modern solution tailored to your needs. Regards,
