    Thread moved to 'Forum Feedback', which is where questions about site usage etc belong


    marniel647 is correct... unfortunately the search is currently not working fully, it will hopefully be fine in the next few days. Temporarily you can use a search engine like google to search this site.

    I think for now it can only find threads created after the upgrade. Think I saw that mentioned somewhere.
    Treeview with NodeAdded/NodesRemoved events | BlinkLabel control | Calculate Permutations | Object Enums | ComboBox with centered items | .Net Internals article(not mine) | Wizard Control | Understanding Multi-Threading | Simple file compression | Demon Arena

    Copy/move files using Windows Shell | I'm not wanted

    C++ programmers will dismiss you as a cretinous simpleton for your inability to keep track of pointers chained 6 levels deep and Java programmers will pillory you for buying into the evils of Microsoft. Meanwhile C# programmers will get paid just a little bit more than you for writing exactly the same code and VB6 programmers will continue to whitter on about "footprints". - FunkyDexter

    There's just no reason to use garbage like InputBox. - jmcilhinney

    The threads I start are Niya and Olaf free zones. No arguing about the benefits of VB6 over .NET here please. Happiness must reign. - yereverluvinuncleber

    Yes it is, but I don't know how long it will take to be fully sorted.

    In the mean time, you can use the alternative I suggested above.
