    So does that mean next-gen PCs will go up to 10 kilobucks? Although, with the way things are going now, that may be less than a pack of peanuts...

  • Professional freelancing advice needed

    In addition to the grammatical mistakes ("it's" instead of "its", run-on sentences), your text includes phrases with words like "suck" and "hell". Among programmers and web folks, that's no big deal; small businesses may consider that kind of language as unprofessional. Your web site is an advertisement. You should avoid anything that might offend people in a sales pitch. And they're going to think, "If he put that on his web site, what's he going to put on mine?" You have several unattributed quote blocks. If somebody else didn't say them, they shouldn't be in quotes. If someone else did, you should say who said it - and you should have their permission. If they won't give you permission to use their name, you shouldn't use the quotes. I'd recommend separate sections. Aim one at the web-design market, which can be less formal. A separate section targeting specific small business solutions can be more formal, confident and serious. The small business section should also use far less IT jargon and include specific examples. You said you've used designers in the past. I like your layout. Others have criticized your design as too generic but simple is best for small businesses. I would also recommend networking with one or more copy writers in your area to go over your copy. You can offer to trade web work for writing/editing work. If you already had someone else write your web content, I'd find someone else.

    19 light years is a hell of a long way to go on the chance it's not a barren rock Yeah, but it'd be your descendants who'd find out about that.;P That is, of course, assuming the ship was built by somebody like the guys who built Spaceship One, as opposed to those who built the shuttle.

    I'm curious, did you get any feel for how many people at the developer summit were programmers, and how many were geofolk who just code because they have to?

  • vb screen flicker problem
    G gisTimmy

    The Windows API call for LockWindowUpdate will control your form flickering when you do a lot of updates to controls. In a code module, put this in your declaration section:

    Declare Function LockWindowUpdate Lib "user32" \_
        (ByVal hWnd As Long) As Long
    

    Then add this Sub to the same module.

    Public Sub LockWindow(hWnd As Long, blnValue As Boolean)
        If blnValue Then
            LockWindowUpdate hWnd
        Else
            LockWindowUpdate 0
        End If
    End Sub
    

    When you are about to update the chart, call LockWindowUpdate:

    '	Lock the form's window to prevent refresh
    LockWindowUpdate Me.hWnd, True
    '	Do your thing with the chart...
    '	Unlock the window to show the updated form
    LockWindowUpdate 0, False
    

    I haven't tried this with chart controls, but it works OK with TreeViews and ListViews. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
