Thanks for the words of encouragement. Albert Enstein once said that a person who has never failed has never tried. Yes, I did try and I learned so much from this experience. Well, here is to the future of more tries and hopefully less failures. :) Thanks! "Age wrinkles the body. Quitting wrinkles the soul." -Douglas MacArthur

What's interesting is I had the same thought when I was texting to my friend about a first person shooter game and I used the word "kill". The thought I had was NSA flagging this? Most likely yes. "Age wrinkles the body. Quitting wrinkles the soul." -Douglas MacArthur

Great find! The one thing we have learned from history is that we don't learn from history. I guess that motto applies very well in this scenario.

I will be bad to you :-D! It depends! Of course it depends. It depends on what your company portal for! If you use it as a information page about the company, its products than you may choose the simplest HTML. On the other hand, you may expose services for workers and customers, and in that case SharePoint is a very good choice. In our case we have a company portal of the first kind, and its perfect for us... I'm not questioning your powers of observation; I'm merely remarking upon the paradox of asking a masked man who he is. (V)

I reported a bug in Himem.sys in DOS 5.0 and when I checked in Windows 98 it was still there.

Please, you have been told before. No religion in the Lounge.

An idea that's guaranteed to take off.  I think the buzz is definitely justified. /ravi My new year resolution: 2048 x 1536 Home | Articles | My .NET bits | Freeware ravib(at)ravib(dot)com

Thank you for that! Last Friday I found this great video tutorial on ASP.Net showing me how to do something I need to do on my project! Very informative site! Thanks for the suggestion!

Thanks for that reply. I have been doing more research and some people in other forums suggest to try using a "Join" query. I will give that a shot. This could be so much easier if I could use SQL. But oh well. Thanks though.

I just did the same thing. Bob Dole The internet is a great way to get on the net. :doh: 2.0.82.7292 SP6a

"Whenever I place a breakpoint in the cpp file and run the main program (VB) the breakpoint I placed in the cpp will not be hit according to the compiler." When debugging managed code that calls unmanaged code, there's a setting (in Properties | Debug) called "Enable unmanaged code debugging". If this isn't checked, the debugger won't step into the unmanaged code.

I think this is along the lines of what I want. Going to do a bit more research and experimentation to see if this achieves the objective I am looking for. Sharepoint – Cascading Drop Down Lists[^]

That is hilarious! :laugh:

Fortunately most military hardware isn't allowed to be made with chips and processors sourced outside the U.S. There is a major concern that countries like China will alter the chips at the factories to contain security bypasses that will allow them to get around security or funnel information back to China. The downside is that this increases the costs of the components by a lot and causes longs delays before you can get replacements. If one of these computers goes out, they can't just order a new one from a computer store.

Odd, but seriously annoying as well. Generally, a close-and-restart gets it back to normal for a while! :laugh: Ideological Purity is no substitute for being able to stick your thumb down a pipe to stop the water

Could you Pls explain,what actually the problem being faced? Regards, Anand Deshmukh

Clark Kent123 wrote: In all honesty, I am just trying to prevent the error message from popping up. So I was not paying too close attention on what Delegates were, but had the mind set of copy and paste sample code and hope the error goes away. I quickly dropped that method of learning, as it becomes frustrating very quickly. Incomplete samples, fishing out the unrelated parts, the "cool" feature you missed because the example used a simpeler overload.. Clark Kent123 wrote: I think the "informing" the other class that something has changed might be the what I want to do. Hehe, I was afraid that this would be the answer; there's a specialized form to use the delegate, called the event. If your class where to "notify" another class that it has finished loading that huge text-file, you'd typically raise an event (RaiseEvent[^]), something called "OnLoadFinished" or something like that. Clark Kent123 wrote: I am not yet there of saying "Oh, this would be a perfect place to make this method async with threads" or "Wait, this needs a delegate". All too well; especially if a technique is still abstract in ones mind, often the case with design-patterns. To make it worse, there are usually multiple ways to achieve something, often with no clear "correct" way, but multiple trade-offs to go either here or there. Clark Kent123 wrote: My mind set of programming has been linear that the idea of something asynchronously is foreign to me and it's taking me a while to grasp how to implement it in my app. As a quick rule-o-thumb, anything that takes more than 0.5 second to complete, should be on it's own thread. Loading large pictures, parsing text-files, loading large tables; all of those would be candidates for their own thread (ideally with a progress-indication). Learning threading, delegates and events all at once is a bit much to dive into. I suggest you pick one of the three and try to create the smallest console-app possible to see it in action.
