Same here, I've had 4 open and no problems. VS2005 is so much better than 2003 as far as being able to run quickly in my opinion. You could have a CPU issue, or hard drive thrashing. - Drew

Penny anyone ?Not necassarly true. If you only earn 3% then you would lose money over the course of it's saving. This is because of inflation. Also, if you save a penny and only earn 3% while you have debt that takes 15% then you are also losing money. It would be better to pay off the debt if it has a higher interest rate than that which you would earn through investing it. - Drew

Be fruitfulWell... If you look at the total population count then this statement might seem ignorant. However I read a study that suggested places like the UK will be in trouble soon. The article states that women are waiting until later in their life to have children, late 30's and sometimes 40's. This is going to create a huge generation gap in the society. The gap will need to be filled with people moving into the area from other nations. There are also similar studies in the US. We are getting to the point where there might be more people that do not have kids, then one's that do. It probably won't affect you and I, but in the generations to come there might be a problem. Not that I agree with everything, if anything, the pope says. Just thought I would talk about the reason why having more babies would be good, instead of just demanding it. - Drew

Bored With Fonts...Oh man.. All my design documents are going to be written in this now. Maybe it will get everyone's attention long enough to actually read the document. - Drew

Creating FilesYou can easily create a Jet database using ADOX. Here's an example in C#. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/317881/EN-US/[^] After you create the catalog you can add tables, then columns. I use this technique in one of my products. Hope this helps. - Drew

converting variable into the a stringMATLAB most likely created their own parser that can interpret their language. Depending on how far you wish to go you could do the same thing. You'll need to create a stack that contains all of the variables and there relevant values. If you want to just assign values to names you could create a Map of all the names to their values. You would then be able to access them like so: String myVal = (String)variables["a"]; This is a simplistic point of view on the whole matter of creating a parser though. Look up some articles on Abstract Syntax Trees (AST), and some parser generators such as Lex, Bison, SableCC, and ANTLR. Hope this helps. - Drew

"What the bleep do we know?"After reading all of the replies to this movie I wonder if all the skeptics would have been the same people that believed the world was flat and couldn't possibly believe it was 'semi-spherical'? Just a thought... ;-) The pheromones section was interesting and based in science. I'm not quite sure I could associate the people that did this movie with the same crowd that believe in horoscopes. If you look at the movie very abstractly it could be boiled down to one point; You have the power to control your own destiny. For example, if you think you are going to fail that test, then you've already defeated yourself. At least that is how I interpreted the movie. It was quite strange how it had this meta-physical part, then it took a tangent into pheromones, then back again into meta-physical. I enjoyed it. Just because you watch Star-Wars doesn't mean you have to believe in the force. Watch it as a movie and enjoy. - Drew

A Mac Switch StoryIronic that Apple might switch to using Intel chips. There goes his 'Tel' part of the WinTel article. I wonder if you can get mad at the electric company because a company made a faulty nail gun and you shot your self in the head... Something to ponder. - Drew

Next Gen ConsolesThis isn't about new screenshots, or release information. :) Trying to get the most recent gossip about the next generation consoles I keep coming across so-called screenshots of next--gen games. I'm curious as to how anyone would think these screenshots will of the real-time quality that these pictures show. The PC market is barely getting to the point of quality that these screenshots demonstrate and that is with a $400 video card and 3 ghz CPU. I don't think Sony nor Microsoft would be so bold as to release a console that cost $1000. Ever since the integrated 3d cards for the PC, the consoles have and probably will always be behind the PC gaming. Don't get me wrong, most of the games I play are for consoles, it's just that I don't expect them to look like they do on the PC. Any thoughts? - Drew

Recommendation for multi-platoform developmentSir, I take offense to saying ACE is painful to use. Hehe. :) It's one of those things that has a severly high learning curve, but pays off really well once it is learned. - Drew

HELP !!! WHITEBOARDI feel compelled to explain that your method for asking for help probably isn't the most effective. If I were to change the code I would probably change it to use a Message Oriented architecture. - Drew

Can i stop people from deleting a file?The reason that some of the system files prevent you from deleting them is because they are in use. But I hardly think creating a dummy application that holds a file open to prevent it from being deleted is appropriate. If you don't want it deleted then change file permissions, or keep a 'cache' directory that will replace the file if it notices it is missing. This is something Windows XP does. - Drew

Opening A Form using ReflectionIt appears in this context the 'Class' means that the form attempted to register a new 'Class' (Description of a window) with the Win32 API RegisterClass. I do think posting the code might help. - Drew
