It's been quite a LONG while since I've visited VBF. Just received an email about a reply to some thread I was subscribed to... From 2006...
I'm glad to see some of the regulars are still around...

I'm currently enjoying Surviving Mars. Started playing yesterday. I picked it up ages ago, just never had the time. So far I'm enjoying it, just having a hard time figuring out small things like the...

Well I'm still hanging around! :-) And I'm glad to still see the regular names from when I joined such as kregg, dClamp, Mendhak and the likes. (Of course Wossy as well! :-D)
There's a few things...

Brilliant movie! Went to go see it a while back while I was on leave and I can honestly say that it was much better than episodes I to III. I did feel as though some of the few action scenes were a...

@danasegarane:
I'm not using a DSN. I've also seen these articles everywhere where they explain that you need to create a DSN first, but I don't use one...
@jmcilhinney:
I'm hesitant to use the...

Hi Everyone
I'm busy working on an ASP.NET Web Application (3.5) and can't seem to connect to a MySQL DB. I first created the entire application using a WinForms template and everything works...
-
I've also been around here for quite a while, and it's true that you miss the members that once was here. I remember joining VBForums when I started programming. (Both as a career and a hobby) Now I...

Nope, teachers aren't allowed to discipline kids at all, which is why there's such a decline.
at the end of the day, I don't think kids can use that as an excuse either. There are many outstanding...

As I live in a country not supported by Google Checkout, I have no option but to give away my apps for free on the Android marketplace.
According to the EULA (or whatever it's called) developers...
-
Well, the dicipline around here isn't much different than other countries, though there does seem to be a general decline.
My father also whipped me proper as a kid for doing wrong, and while it...

Conspiracies or not, I do think it's becoming more of a "trend" now for people around America (Sorry for the generalization here, but considering what I know, it's been mostly in the US so far) to go...
-
Cool, thanks for the feedback, I suspected that the first is more for beginners. I think I'll have to go for both of these. Fortunately it's "The Company" that pays for it :)
Oh, and before anyone...

Hello everyone
It's been quite a while since I last visited VBForums, I'll admit. :) Hopefully the regulars are still around here...
I don't know if there's a dedicated forum for this type of...

LOL
That wouldn't be from Firefly, would it? It's about the only show I've seen Nathan Fillion in... (There's been a few, but can't recall anything...)
-
I am curious: Are you new to the .NET Framework or new to VB.NET only? I know you mentioned you are using VB.NET, though there is a way to compile an application from source in a C# application......
-
I used to try and get started in Electronics, but I never really understood it all that well. I'm currently reading a book regarding PIC Microcontrollers (will post the title if I get home should...
-
I... have no idea. :) I checked the response and it's sending UTF-8 as a header. How can I confirm that the content received has the same encoding as specified in the header?
-
Did a bit more scratching:
I copied the input data from Wireshark into an XML file and invoked the same url using HttpWebRequest. When I "manually" invoke the web service, the return data is shown...

Hi All
I'm busy writing an Application that makes extensive use of Web Services. Everything seems to be working fine, aside from "non-standard" characters appearing as question marks depending on...

Phew... This one seems like a tough one. :) To everyone who has entered so far, all the photos are absolutely fantastic! (Makes it hard to vote though...)
Anyway, here's mine:...

I have a SonyEricsson X10 (not the mini) and it works beautifully. The 4" screen is absolutely amazing for watching media. After installing the "arcMedia" application, I can watch just about any...

:lol:
Office: IE6. It came with XP and I'm too lazy to install a new browser. That, plus the version of our application only works in IE6.
Home: Firefox. I hate the new IE that came with Win 7...

-
I'd love to get a WP7 device, though I got the X10 about 4 months ago, so I have another year and a half to go. :(
About multitasking: Surely if an app has a "tile" on the home screen it will run...
-
I use Windows purely because of games. Yes, I can run emulators / VM's in other OS'es, though I doubt my hardware is powerful enough to play the games properly.

How else will my relatives speak to me?
-
I tend not to write anything on paper as I usually can't make out what it is I've written down. :(
-
If I recall correctly, didn't you write some fancy calculator-like thing for Linux? While it's probably "standard" C++ / ASM / whatever, I still think it's cool.
I'm a full-time employed developer...

Take the quotes out of the comparison:
Change
if (this.OwnedForms[i].Name.ToString().TrimStart() == "formName")
to
if (this.OwnedForms[i].Name.ToString().TrimStart() == formName)
You want...

Agreed. I'm also self taught from around 9. It kinda sucks having a day job as a hobby and vice versa, but at least it pays good. :)

Hmmm... maybe the original was damaged when they made the "image" for the xbox original? Gotta hate technology, eh?

Referring to the linked article: What the hell is wrong with people!? :eek: I'm depressed because we don't have spaceships that have warp-drives, artificial gravity and a machine that can make...

Just a thought: Have you checked XP's Windows Firewall on both connections? It might be blocking one of the two connections to access the ports used for XBox Live.

Pretty much sums it up. (Both coffee AND the useless language...)

You don't necessarily need to use C#. You can also use VB in Visual Studio. I opted for C# as I also use other Visual Studio toolkits that were designed only for C#. (XNA, for example)
