I haven't used it and I'm not really keen to. Just trying to look for a quick and dirty solution. If it is effective i'll work up a more efficient application later. For now i just want to use technologies i am familiar with.

I am trying to build a network chat program. I know this has been done a million times in a million different ways usually by beginner programmers but bear with me. Basically the issue i'm having is that I want to create one application (kept as an executable in a shared location) to receive messages in the form of strings from each chat application on workers computers. In this way it will work as a micro server receiving messages and distributing them into a readable form for all users. I'm doing it this way because I want the messages received to be displayed in order and there will be several users at once. This is important to the functionality. So my question is this. How do you send a string from one application and how do you make the other application receive or do something with it?

I don't really understand how to use the xml document, how to look through the nodes etc and extract the information i want.

Thanks. I'm not sure exactly how to work with this though. If you are willing to help more here I have further questions. Alternatively I can make a new thread. For instance, how would i then get certain bits of information about each post? I gather the For Each loop can be used to probe the nodes, but how would i find the id or link for each post using this loop?

Can anyone help me, or at least point me to some good sites that will help with reading and writing binary files on the fly without using an array?

We were having a cocktail party once, and one of our friends was organising the food. She asked one of my other friends if she knew the recipe for fairybread. You know, buttred bread with sprinkles on it...

You can enstore an encrypted day counter in the registry that the program checks everytime it runs, as long as you use a relatively difficult key to crack, the majority of people will not be able to break it. This works best if you go off times used as oppose to if the date has been changed, because people can always wind the clock back before it ends. There are some great articles on CP about Registry keys and encryption.

Do you want to know all the text before ','? In which case it would be something like this: dim p as integer = me.rtb1.text.indexof(",") me.rtb1.select(0,p)

whats the point in having a coding forum if you just point them to google everytime they have a coding question, often google just points you to another forum anyway. Just answer a question for once, i'm starting to think you people don't have any other response than 'see goggle'.

doesn't application.doevents check if anything else has happened/being pressed etc. I've used it before to put an exit function in a loop from a stop button.
