F.Y.I... In VS2017 there is something called Shared Projects and a Reference Manager... where a common piece of code can be used in multiple projects. ETA: It appears that these: Reference Manager / Shared Projects are two different things, which work similarly. I'm still researching how this all works, but it sounds promising... ref1: How to: Add or remove references by using the Reference Manager Add references in the Reference Manager - Visual Studio | Microsoft Docs[^] ref2: Shared Projects code sharing Use Shared Projects to Share Code - Xamarin | Microsoft Docs[^]

After reading more.. C# really is not connected to C++ in any way. So many things in programming are either built onto C++ or the C++ name... using the popularity of C++ to its advantage (and confusing C++ programmers at the same time).

Yes, it looks nice. :) Interested in honing my web programming skills at this point. And I have the time. The thing is, most of the blog is already built and working. I just want to add a couple of features to it.

I have a normal HTML/CSS w/some JScript thrown-in webpage, with > 50 individual blog pages that are indexed from the main index.html file. On my wishlist are two things: -would like to add a Search Box. Not one that depends on an external search engine. I want to roll my own, so to speak. I want to have all my pages accessible - so that I can search through the pages and then display the results to a user after a search. I'm thinking that the pages need to be put into a database for this(?) -Would like to add a 'prev' and a 'next' function to the bottom of each sub-webpage. The user should not always have to navigate back to the index to see another page. Would like one function that takes an argument - prev or next. Or two separate functions are ok. What I want to avoid is having to hardcode "num of next page", and "num of prev page" on every subpage. Can be very error-prone. What language(s), DBs would be best for this? I worked as a professional programmer in the past, so complexity of code is not a problem. A language that works good with a DB (if needed), and one where the functions work in Windows and in Linux is important. Also, a great debugger is paramount, as I anticipate using it a lot when first starting out.

From a quote: "C# is a simple, modern, object oriented, and type-safe programming language derived from C and C++. C# (pronounced "C sharp") is firmly planted in the C and C++ family tree of languages, and will immediately be familiar to C and C++ programmers. C# aims to combine the high productivity of Visual Basic and the raw power of C++." If C# is a simpler version of C and C++, shouldn't it be called C Dull? Maybe the VB portion redeems it from the doldrums...? Just wondering. Take Care God Bless...
