Hello fellow coders,

The application I'm trying to make is more or less a dictionary, which works fine until you get bored about copying the word from a text and pasting it in the dictionary...

Thank you Mokey,

it's the "this.Controls.Add(b);" line that I've been missing... Thank you for helping me out on this one.

I come from a pretty colorful VB6 background and am now trying to learn C#.

all goes pretty well for me except for the fact that there are no control arrays(correct me if I'm...

no idea, I frankly seldom use the IC and don't have VB on this machine. you'll have to wait till next week when I get my old PC back... damn I hate it

set datagrid1.datasource=rs

at least that's what I do:confused:

you could check if the IC is heading towards a MP3 file and if so, stop it and run your own media player with that URL

Hello Everybody,

the short of it is: I cannot save game status. which equals I cannot write to most folders(limited accounts only). and I have no idea how to solve that so I need help.

Hello Everybody
YES, I've done it! I made my first ADO program, sold my first program and finally can say that I understand database programming(to some extend:D ). too much for one program isn't...

Hello Everybody,

I resume my quest to get to the latest level of DB development again(WITHOUT BOOK yet).

I was asked to do some little program for a company: Record Workers and calculate fees,...

OK I read the Article to which the Database forum refered to and it helped me connect some of the pieces that were floating in my head...
still have a lot to figure out though

where the hell did all the databases come from? I remember the days when I was happy to save my data in a crappy txt file in vb4 and win3.11 and I'm still young(18 years)! what will come next?

I...

it isn't related, mate. the problem with date stuff was that I had no idea that date must be set between # symbols.

oh you did help me bloody well, I only have about a hundred new questions which I'm gonna send to your email now. you doomed yourself:D

2....

Hello Everybody
I've been writing my first Database programs lately(DAO), and although I HATE Database stuff I'm working quite good.

I'm stuck at a point where I say
Set rs =...

I've been able to do it in un-real-time, but since I need it in-game it must work in at like 15 mS per screen which it does not.

I do not know what you mean with "involves gradients". Gradients...

I must say I like your code though the API calles made me feel a bit dizzy.

well since I want to darken my whole screen(640*480 pixles) I don't think this can be done in reasonable time....


I...

I could never get my understanding beyond the basics of DX and I was always focusing on D3D since that's what I want my games to be made with... so I'll just quote from the first post:

I use GDI32...

if I remember correctly the alpha blending API doesnt work on win 9x thus I cannot use it:(

That would work for the extra bright flash but in that story(I'm trying to implent a bit of The Wheel Of Time) there are too many variations of effects.

I'm currently writing a (#@%^@) school project which is to resemble an old RPG(something like the old final fantasy NES series).

Would this help?

A reference to point at the active form could be done easily if you wish it

Thank you note me, now I have all the data I need.

hmmm your code works though I hardly understand the difference. What's the difference between LoadImage and LoadPicture? what's the IMAGE_BITMAP constant which I couldn't find in the WIN32API.TXT...

No it doesn't :(

There was an example in some Add-in for creating forms at runtime, however, I don't think this is the only way(looks like the easiest though)

Hello People,

does anybody know a way to do it?

Hello Everybody,

as the title says, I am unable to change my homepage. eveytime I close internet explorer it's back to the bloody "search for pleasure homepage". also in my favortes are some links...

but would that unload the class? I'm quite new to VB's class systems and can't really understand why set x=nothing sometimes deletes a class and sometimes only changes the pointer :S:S:S

That way should work for my needs but I have a question which I will probably face sooner or later:
I have made out an object I no longer need by it's index in the collection. How can I unload?
