Hello thoru, Although I was sure that this issue should not make any error :omg: . I gave it a try in my installed VS2008 in my machine. I made a new C++ project with a precompiled headers and non-empty project, every thing went good :cool:. Redwan Al-Bougha

even worse, it's a poor man's floppy dongle! Best regards, Steven A. Lowe CEO, Innovator LLC www.nov8r.com

I do not consider renumbering the values in Resource.h to be a whole heap of work. Besides, I always leave gaps around arrays of control identifiers just in case I have to add more so this is very rarely an issue for me and when it arises it is easy to deal with.

:confused:... :wtf: ... :omg: ... :doh:

lmao To those who understand, I extend my hand. To the doubtful I demand: Take me as I am. Not under your command, I know where I stand. I won't change to fit yout plan. Take me as I am.

Indexes - pwah! Real men use table scans in their queries - indexes are for cheats :rolleyes: :laugh: Continuous effort - not strength or intelligence - is the key to unlocking our potential.(Winston Churchill)

Dude, do you have the slightest frigging clue what this forum is for? It is for sharing coding horrors one has found while working, not for programming questions.

I understand that not everyone can be an expert at higher math, but that is really bad. Bill W

Gotcha... :)

If you are trying to say that these requirements are a horror, I have to disagree. Those requirements are quite resonable for a homework assignment. Also this is a "coding horror" forum not a requirements horror forum. Bill W

I totally agree. I have had requirements change far more often than not. Even for things that I was originally told that it would never change. So I always write things in such a way as to allow for easy changes in the future. Bill W

Only there? :omg: Daily WTF Memes

There is way too much code like that, with direct SQL concats. I am only briefed to add two reports to the system, not secure it. Hell, if I were to decode all the decompiled code and use parametrised queries, I could probably buy a new car with the earnings. Daily WTF Memes

Graham Bradshaw wrote: Shouldn't ReDim nFoo(j - 1) be ReDim Preserve nFoo(j - 1)? As the code is, you reinitialise nFoo. Yes, you are correct. Thanks for pointing it out, must have slipped through my fingers while typing it over from the real code. :-O Note to myself: Learn to use Copy-Past ;) Learn from the mistakes of others, you may not live long enough to make them all yourself.

More proof that just knowing the syntax of a language is not enough to write high quality code. Bill W

I used to work at a place where many of those things were done and no one saw anything wrong with it. I switched to a better job. ;) Bill W
