    I want to ask that is it really tough to code a BB software(Bulletin Board )? like phpbb and sell it.
    Any special tools required for that?

    Yes, it's hard to code as you have not only make sure there are masses of functions and it's easy to use - but secure it.

    You don't need any special tools, just PHP and a database engine (i.e. MySQL or PGSQL).

    Impossible, it needs some kind of frontend - PHP, CGI/Perl, etc.

    Isn't there any software where you just have to put functions and name of the script?
