.PST Tools

Microsoft has released two new tools for .PST file format used by Outlook. They are the .PST Data Structure View Tool and the .PST File Format Software Development Kit. Both are available under the open source Apache 2.0 license @ http://pstviewtool.codeplex.com/ and @ http://pstsdk.codeplex.com/ .

The first tool provides a GUI that shows the internal data structure of .PST files. The second tool provides a library of source code and high-level APIs that developers can use to build their own applications such as e-discovery software for legal purposes.

Assembly Language Programming

Two good books on assembly language programming are Jeff Duntemann’s “Assembly Language Step-by-Step” (Wiley) and Randall Hyde’s “The Art of Assembly Language” (No Starch Press). Both are thick books that cover the 8086 instruction set from AAA to XOR.

Duntemann’s style is breezy and very easy to read. Hyde style is dry and his book uses “High-Level Assembly” (HLA), a programming language with a somewhat Pascal-like syntax, control structures and a standard library as a scaffolding to teach assembly language programming.
