  1. Re: Weird "bug" with Dim? Does everyone know that Dim ignores logic?

    THAT is a good thread. So good to learn stuff like this.
  2. Re: Detecting Sleep / Standby mode

    When I want to detect whether a system has just awoken from sleep I have used a stored timer and compared it against current system time, if there is a discrepancy greater than the timer interval I ...
  3. Re: Getting the ball rolling. Which VB6 projects are you working on?

    That is great. Each VB6 creation is just as valid as another. My creations look great at least, to me - but not to others!

    Your software is doing a REAL task which mine are not. Mine are just...
  4. Re: Getting the ball rolling. Which VB6 projects are you working on?

    I'm getting there! Several gauges built now. Smooth animation added to the pointers. Need to test and implement multi-monitor handling, need to unpack my other monitors from over 100 boxes (just...
  5. Re: [VB6]Hi the trick,how to enumerate all modules and members in a project?

    Undead? Well, in my living zombie existence, that makes some sort of sense. I look for the light of at least partial resurrection in TwinBasic and possibly even the lesser God, RadBasic, in time.

  6. Re: VB6 COMMUNITY PROJECT - MSPAINT with Add-Ins

    I don't think gaouser is learning about software development in VB6, I think gaouser is just DOING software development. So far, nothing can stop him!
  7. Re: VB6 COMMUNITY PROJECT - MSPAINT with Add-Ins

    There is already a FOSS Paint, C++.

    Re: How do I do this in VB6?

    Top tip in raising a request for help on this forum: Don't ever say, "How do I do this in VB6?" as the subject. Either no-one or the wrong person is likely to turn up and respond - like me now.

    40% of the time it works EVERY time.

  13. Re: [RESOLVED] Why are there no cooperative areas here? Or are there?

    VB6 does graphics well with a little help from Olaf's RichClient framework. You can see my VB6 creations starting to appear here: https://github.com/yereverluvinunclebert

  15. Re: Philosophical question about keeping projects on OneDrive vs Local Drive

    Microsoft has a terrible relationship with synching. Remember that.

    o Briefcase, mucking up your documents.
    o Windows desktop, a structure synching to the filesystem and not part of it, mucking...
  16. Re: I beg of you PLEASE consider offering perpetual licenses.

    Sounds like a good model and a good compromise to me.

    Access to support forums could be controlled by quoting a current user subscription/product ID? Just thinking. Possibly not a good idea but...

    Starting over is the hardest thing to do, especially when you realise you have been doing something fundamentally wrong all the time. This realisation can prevent you restarting altogether.

    Rust! The bane of all classic car owners. One day we will learn how to reassemble the rust molecules into original parts. People will wish they'd kept their bags of rust... perhaps not.

  23. Re: Image embeds got replaced with a URL on VBF that doesn't exist

    This forum has changed previously loaded and correct images for me as well, turning them into malformed URLs. Not recently though.

    Oh yes, Helloooo Niya.
  24. Re: Image embeds got replaced with a URL on VBF that doesn't exist

    I have recently come across examples of imgur disposing of old images older than 15 years, the particular site was from 2007. It was an unexpected event as imgur seemed to retain images longer than...

  27. Re: VB6 Question: XML Problem extracting attributes from similarly named nodes

    You are also correct with regard to JSON. I'll take that advice on board.
  28. Re: VB6 Question: XML Problem extracting attributes from similarly named nodes

    Techgnome, you have definitely set me on the right path. I was doing an analogue of that but I had missed out a couple vital steps, in particular the SET to a particular node. Thankyou. I feel I have...
  29. Re: VB6 Question: XML Problem extracting attributes from similarly named nodes

    That works, is quite correct, and it is a much easier approach... I find traversing the XML DOM to be pain in the ar5e, I may fall back to simply reading the XML, writing it to a file and then...

  31. [RESOLVED] VB6 Question: XML Problem extracting attributes from similarly named nodes

  32. Re: VB6 Question: Your guidance on best approach, multiple programs data from one sou

    That is EXACTLY what I planned to do.
  33. Re: VB6 Question: Your guidance on best approach, multiple programs data from one sou

    You could give me a few pointers here and there to indicate what I'm doing wrong. I feel sure you'll be able to meter out the punishment if I fail.
  34. Re: VB6 Question: Your guidance on best approach, multiple programs data from one sou

    What I decided to do is to build just the one gauge, ensure it operates in all the ways it should. It will extract the XML data via an HTTPXMLRequest, read and validate the XML data from the feed and...

  37. Re: Feeling nostalgic I fired up QuickBASIC and wrote a Brain***** interpreter!

    Yup! Good ol' Windows Defender, the setup.exe may be old, it is built using setup2go and produces an exe rather than a .msi. A/V tools won't like it. Just download the source and compile yourself. I...
