I used to have to greet the new PhD's at a R&D lab where I used to work. It was a setup. Someone would come into the lab and introduce the new person and say that they had a PhD. I would respond that I was very impressed but just don't touch anything. They usually didn't know what to say. Then we would all laugh and say welcome to the lab.

DavidCrow wrote: All of this "I expected..." and "it should be..." stuff is pointless What I mean to imply here is that based on what I have read/know the output should have been so and so.....So may be my understanding of this concept (of calling convention, sequence points) needs to be brushed up....It *could be* my ignorance on the matter, lets see, I'll read more, do more research and see what's missing :) DavidCrow wrote: Compiler vendors are free to evaluate such expressions as they wish just so long as all side effects of previous evaluations have been performed at each sequence point. Expressions....true, but the point here is about "passing variables" and C does specify how to do that: either R-to-L or L-to-R, we can make that selection. DavidCrow wrote: In your printf example, the order in which the arguments are evaluated is not specified, I did not specify that but I m using the default calling convention under which variables are passed R-to-L

This is the assembly output for the statement i = (s << 15) + (c << 9); movsx eax, WORD PTR _s$[ebp] shl eax, 15 ; 0000000fH movsx ecx, BYTE PTR _c$[ebp] shl ecx, 9 add eax, ecx mov DWORD PTR _i$[ebp], eax So as you can see nothing is stored back into any variable. The two shifts happen in the eax and ecx registers. It is then added together and the stored into the variable i, which is also 4 bytes in length. «_Superman_» I love work.

I thought maybe since this is more of a database-question i posted it in a different Message Board(SQL) Please find the link below: http://www.codeproject.com/script/Forums/View.aspx?fid=1725&msg=2360958[^] i have also included a code snippet there

SQL Express works fine on XP. So does SQL 2005 standard. The only problem with SQL Express is the number of connections (5 If I remember correctly.) Also Express does not have fun things like SSIS or SSAS. It does have the reporting service. SQL Express is free to download. WPWood

Hi, You can di it like this:void __fastcall TForm1::BitBtn2Click(TObject *Sender) { // what ever code come here } //--------------------------------------------------------------------------- void __fastcall TForm1::BitBtn1Click(TObject *Sender) { BitBtn2Click(Sender); } Makes sense ....
