Sounds like you are venting. Feel better now?
The program belongs to your employer unless they release it to you. or, they
are too dumb to know you have it.

I have spent roughly 200 hours exclusively of my personal time writing an
extensive lab management program for my employer. This was done out of the
goodness of my heart and with the intense desire to end the agony of our
dysfunctional ways. In spite of receiving tacit approval at one point and
having the support of colleagues, management is now completely and
deliberately ignoring it.

Questions:
1. To cut my losses, is there a practical way to sell the program?
2. Are there concerns about ownership even if it was written 100% by me
on my own time but was tailored to the company's needs, was tested at our
office on our network and received a cursory review by one manager?
3. Would it return a decent price - i.e. would it likely be worth the
effort?
4. What about piracy concerns?
5. Additional words of wisdom much apprecitated !!!
