I'll second that. They are typically several dollars cheaper than other online stores. If you want to comparison shop Best Book Buys[^] will comparison shop for you. Dan Morris

That worked. Thanks! Dan Morris

Thanks. I'll give it a try. Dan Morris

I can get a Control to Render its HTML output to an HtmlTextWriter, but I am unable to get the HtemlTextWriter to give me the HTML string that it contains. Nor can I figure out from the documentation how to access the output stream object the writer references so that I can get the HTML from the original control. Any ideas? Thanks in advance. Dan Morris

No. DataAdapter.Fill returns an int. If you want to return the Dataset you need to call Fill and return Dataset separately. da.Fill(ds) return ds Dan Morris

If that was done using an activeX control in the designer for the control you won't find any code for it. (One of the (many) annoying aspects of VB6) Your best bet on that is find a copy of VB6 whether on the client's machines or what have you, and get the info out of the project using the IDE. Dan Morris

There's supposed to be a wizard that will help migrate VB6 code to VB.NET. I'm not sure if it's inherently part of VS.NET or not. I'm not aware of whether you can open a .vbp in VS.NET as I've never tried. Any chance you could get a look at the code from the client's network that would have VB6? Dan Morris

Try this if you want a data reader: Dim cnn as SqlConnection = New Connection(connectionString) Dim cmd as SqlCommand = New SqlCommand("SELECT * FROM Customer", cnn) Dim rdr as SqlDataReader = cmd.ExecuteReader() 'Now iterate through the reader While rdr.Read() Console.WriteLine(rdr("CustomerName")) End While ...

I've read that it will be 2.0 as well. And it supposed to be released later this year. Whereas Longhorn is a couple years out. Dan Morris

It doesn't hurt to know both. Knowing both makes you more marketable. You will find that the language of choice for any given company is usually set by someone else. So in knowing both... if you apply for a position doing .NET development it doesn't matter whether they use C# or VB. Just my two cents... :) Dan Morris

The following should work: Public Property Notes(ByVal index As Integer) As String   Get     Return m_Notes(index)   End Get   Set(ByVal Value As String)     m_Notes(index) = Value   End Set End Property The when you're using the property: myClass.Notes(2) = "Some message!" Hope this helps. Dan Morris

So Vault has support for remote access? I saw this product listed in my search for source code control products and it looks good, I just need a sound argument for purchasing it over VSS which we currently own. Have you had any issues with it other than the admin UI? Dan Morris

I'm looking for recommendations on version control software, either for or against a particular application. My company is finally looking into source code control. :omg::doh: We have MS Visual Source Safe 6.0, though we haven't used it. Should we stick with that or is there something better out there? We are a small shop of about 5 developers, one of which is off-site. We're finding that keeping track of versioning and backups is requiring way too much of our time. Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks. Dan Morris

1-4 articles posted = Bronze. 5-14 articles = Silver. 15-24 articles = Gold. 25+ articles = Platinum. Each 500 messages posted adds one level, and if a user has posted a message then each year of membership adds 1 level. Bonus levels not valid for Gold members.

I was wondering if anyone had any good recommendations for beginning C++ books. I've some experience programming (Java and VB) but I'm looking to take the leap to C++, and need a few good books. Any ideas? Dan Morris _____________________________________ "An eye for an eye makes the whole world blind." - Ghandi
