Why is direct x so hard for me to understand? Usually I'm fast to catch on to things relating to programming, but this gives me headaches. Has anyone tried learning Direct X? What was your experience? Is it that it's just not up my alley?

Just some questions. Can Visual C++ express be used to code non-CLI applications? What is the proper way to do this? What's up with the stdafx.h header? Can somebody explain what that is for please? How come I can't use stdio.h for C code in it? (yet printf and other …

I have a funnier question. Can companies registered internationally trade [B]legally[/B] over the internet with US citizens? Or are we going to actually set up and office and register all over again in the US? Provide answers about other countries if you can (UK, AUS etc)

Unless you are the programmer of this application, there is no built-in way to do this in Vista that I know of.

Hi. I know C#, but I want to venture out cautiously into the world of unmanaged code (reasons had). Now, I want to learn C++ eventually, but I was thinking that I should learn the C language before, since if I'm not mistaken, C++ is itself an extension of the …

Properties are to control access to member variables. You can make them read only or read/write. I'm sure there's this other important thing but I do a lot of mushroom. There's only two ways I know of: calling it directly [code=C#]FooClass.StaticMethod(); FooObject.InstanceMethod();[/code] or through an event handler. [code=c#]this.click += new …

The ballon one is hot. Just a suggestion, get some better lens or sensors. The image quality could better show what is happening (especially the one with the jello)

Hey. Been playing around with WPF, thought it was interesting. Being the completely uncreative machine that I am (:P) I was wondering if somebody would give me an idea of something fun to do that would use up WPF's capabilities, and take about a week.

oh i see. this should work: fooString = "<a name=\""+fooObject+"\">hello</a>" The slash (\) escapes the inner quotes, telling the compiler that the quote directly after each slash is part of the string. I could do some nitpicking on the HTML code there but I doubt it's pertinent. :P

Have you tried the richTextBox control? I did a proprietary database a while back and needed to print, and I used that. However it didn't contain images.

Do you use Visual Studio, or visual C# express. Also, a brief description of the target users is pertinent.

If you dont use visual studio, download a free copy of Visual C# Express from Microsoft. Create a project for your application in Visual Studio and code it. Build the project (F6 is the shortcut I think) inside visual studio. Browse to the project directory (usually My Documents\Visual Studio [releaseyear]\Projects\ApplicationProjectName\ApplicationProjectName) …

They prolly say that because C# is just plain easier. There's also the draw of the .NET framwork (I know you think it's a pain in some light, true but...). I like having this massive library of functions for common/intermediate tasks at my direct disposal, plus easily using libraries from …

Actually, I think you need to put the code [code=C#]this.Invalidate()[/code] in the minimized event handler or similar.

The IIS part I can help you with. If you have your windows CD, insert it, choose add/remove features and search for Internet Information Services. That will do it for you. About the SQL Server part, I do believe that you do need a database to store the username and …

That builds just fine for me. Are you sure you put the method in the right place? like so: [code=C#] public class Class1 { public bool IsNum(char ch) { if (((ch >= '0') && (ch <= '9')) || (ch == '.')) return true; else return false; } } [/code] remember …

Hey idea: I'm thinking we should each say a little about our hobbies and why we enjoy them. That way we can get to know each other better (or whatever) and possibly learn something interesting. My hobbies are pretty basic. Writing and Cycling are my favorite past times. I write …

by buttons I assume you mean event handlers? (ignore that--I don't know why I'm so mean) Anyway, try declaring the variables outside of any methods, but instead, declare them right after the class declaration (before the constructor), Like so: [code=C#] public partial class FooForm : Form { string foo_string; //Can …
