    Question

    I am new to VB and have just found Activeskin (which is a program for skining VB apps),I thought it was great untill I saw the price £179!! Can anyone help me find some way of doing the same thing, but with no or little cost.

    PS, I know C and C++ and I don't mind getting my hands dirty in coding

    A lot of things from that site don't work on my PC, and i got a hell to make a certain one work, the toolbar thing, but then i deleted it because that wasn't what i wanted

    writing software in C++ is like driving rivets into steel beam with a toothpick.
    writing haskell makes your life easier:
    reverse (p (6*9)) where p x|x==0=""|True=chr (48+z): p y where (y,z)=divMod x 13

    Thumbs up Hmmm....no problems on my PC

    You probably haven't downloaded the subtmr thingy. Read the site instructions...almost all their controls require this additional ocx. Don't worry download it, extract, and register and everything should work ok.
