If ya don't like the sigs then fuck off. :rose: Obvisously no *REAL* software engineering experience in the slightest, thats why the dude uses VB - [V]ERY [B]ASIC. Insert your flames pleeze... Normski. - the next bit of code is self modifying ... jmp 0xCODE

Christan or others... Can you please make a list of all these quotes that are so bad. I would like to judge them for myself. :-D Tim Smith "Programmers are always surrounded by complexity; we can not avoid it... If our basic tool, the language in which we design and code our programs, is also complicated, the language itself becomes part of the problem rather that part of the solution."

Some recent VB-defamations from Christian's sigs:
Hey, at least Logo had, at it's inception, a mechanical turtle. VB has always lacked even that... - Shog9 04-09-2002 Cats, and most other animals apart from mad cows can write fully functional vb code. - Simon Walton - 6-Aug-2002 We're just observing the seasonal migration from VB to VC. Most of these birds will be killed by predators or will die of hunger. Only the best will survive - Tomasz Sowinski 29-07-2002 ( on the number of newbie posters in the VC forum ) Half the reason people switch away from VB is to find out what actually goes on.. and then like me they find out that they weren't quite as good as they thought - they've been nannied. - Alex, 13 June 2002
Of course, be careful about using that last one... ;)

I agree, Christian. I find them very offensive.

Okay, guys, help me out on this one. Why is it that Christian is getting flamed for Bad Things that someone else said about VB? Chistopher Duncan Author - The Career Programmer: Guerilla Tactics for an Imperfect World (Apress)

Sentiments is a wrapper that allows you to access the simpler forms of emotions by creating a Sentiments object in VB via CreateObject. To access the complex, low level emotions, you'll need to use C++ and the native API. Of course, I don't know that I can recommend the more complex emotions... :-) Chistopher Duncan Author - The Career Programmer: Guerilla Tactics for an Imperfect World (Apress)

Just learn a real language and you won't be offended anymore. Grow up or get lost.
