    I finally managed to get a stable looking Win 10 installation after 4 failed attempts. The trick is, if dual booting, to turn off Smart Start. Now I can boot into Win7 or Win10 and it seems to be happy. Before that I was tearing my hair (only one) out. Not sure if I like Win10 yet. Cortana seems to work about as well as any other speech recognition application. I.e. Doesn't understand my West Country accent. I have no use whatsoever for a 3D modelling application. Hate the tiles. Dumped them straight away. And so on. Whinge whinge whinge... I may not last forever but the mess I leave behind certainly will.

    At my local minimart, the cash register has a fan louder than my computer's and produces a cacophony of clicking noises when operated, as if it runs on relays! I don't think it even has a serial port. :wtf:

    That's exactly the point, the docs didn't elude to that at all. The first thing it said was "to create a paragraph" even though it was talking about creating text within one. Marc made a valid point. Jeremy Falcon

    He's probably fixing broken VB code. At least that's the punishment I'd come up with.

    I suspect the key is to look at what the compiler's doing behind the scenes. Your anonymous LocationChanged handler closes over three parameters and an instance field, so the compiler will generate something like this: private sealed class SetActionClosure { public Form1 @this; public Control bControl; public Control dControl; public SomeEnum someenum; public void AnonymousLocationChangedHandler(object sender, EventArgs e) { @this.EnumToAction\[someenum\](bControl, dControl); } } private void SetActive(Control bControl /* == this */, Control dControl /* == f2 */, SomeEnum someenum) { SetActionClosure closure = new SetActionClosure(); closure.@this = this; closure.bControl = bControl; // == this closure.dControl = dControl; // == f2 closure.someenum = someenum; bControl /\* == this \*/ .LocationChanged += closure.AnonymousLocationChangedHandler; ... } The instance of the closure class will remain alive as long as the event handler still has a reference to it - ie: until you unsubscribe the handler, or close the Form1 instance. That closure class instance has a reference to the Form2 instance "f2". That Form2 instance will remain in alive for as long as the closure class instance remains alive. "These people looked deep within my soul and assigned me a number based on the order in which I joined." - Homer

    If that's all it does, MEH. Lots of tools that can do that reasonably well already. Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason? Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful? --Zachris Topelius Training a telescope on one’s own belly button will only reveal lint.

    I appreciate what you're saying and understand that you're probably just joking around, but I've inherited a lot of great code. Often I think, "I would have done that differently, or this really needs to be updated or refactored to a newer version of 'the framework/design pattern'", but it's consistent, and well architected. And sometimes, I'm like, "Whoa, that is awesome....!" But not very often. :)
