Hello Nizar, Now that you have some code to work with, it might help if you return to this post here and explain what the code does. In detail. To show that you have understanding of the material. Christian

Hello, I thank GOD that Iowa State didn't make us program entire programs in assembly. That is what a compiler is for. Granted, I would never encourage someone to be ignorant and avoid learning something new, I have to wonder why some places still make programming difficult like that. I …

Hello, If you can find another hard drive, such as a 2GB unit, put that in there and make a dual-boot system. Assuming the machine is entirely from the era, be aware: * Big hard drives over 2GB may not be recognized. If it is old enough, something over 512 …

Hello, Are you sure that you want to make a DLL, as in the traditional Windoze DLL (Dynamic Linked Library?) I do not believe Mac Excel will support that... then again they may have added new features to Office 2004 that will do that sort of thing. Are you sure …

Hello, I would stay with the Macs. Aside from my personal loyalty to the brand, the arguement may be made that cross-platform diversity is a great idea. Let's say that a virus is brought into the lab, and it wipes out the entire Windows community. You at least have a …

Hello, I like Novell, but it has irked me in several ways -- Can still get a OS2 / WARP free client, but have to pay for a Macintosh -- Groupwise postoffices can be a bear to work with ++ Becoming more like Linux with how it does things, core …

Hello, You should be able to configure an IP address for each (make one 192.168.1.2 and the other 192.168.1.3) and connect them up, and fileshare across them. You will also need to setup sharing on one of the computers to be a temporary server, and the other computer needs to …

Hello, Quark is the BANE of Desktop Publishing. While my comments will not help you, let's just say that the Quark forums are loaded with gripes against tech support, and that these problems are happening often. I used to use Quark around 3.3 and 4.1 The company has gotten much …

Hello, Some of us got DRAFTED into moderation. And I am glad that I was asked. And then promoted. Moderation requires a blending of skills. You have to be dedicated to visit the forum on a regular basis, and handle both the skill questions, and the attitude / presence questions. …

Hello, You might need to find your OS 9 disks, and get that system installed. What I did for my powerbook was installed OS 9 first, and then installed OS X on top of it. I did that so the computer would have all of the OS 9 materials figured …

Hello, I am a Firefox user, and a former Netscape user. I only use Internet Exploder (IE) when forced to at gunpoint. I like Firefox's pop-up blocker, and the speed it renders materials. I am also cross-platform, and have not seen Internet Exploder for Linux yet. Perhaps it is because …

Hello, I removed your email address, as we want to encourage participation here in the forums at DaniWeb. Others may have the same issue that you have, and it would be beneficial for them to see it too. Please keep the conversations here. Your keyboard is working in OS 9, …

Hello, Laptops are not known for their expansion capabilities. A alot of them, for space reasons, have built-in video, audio, and wireless controllers on the motherboard so that they can be power-optimized, and minimal hassle. Laptops are designed for doing work, connectivity to the internet, light reading, and it is …

Hello, My experience with Virtual PC is from the version 5 days, and using Windows 2000. It was too slow to be functional for me on my 333 MHz PowerBook G3... but it did work. Virtual PC sets up a virtual machine -- a computer inside your computer -- that …

Hi, I would not be the quickest to jump onto the Norton bandwagon.... I have seen cases where Norton fell apart in the Windoze world, and the antivirus just seems clunky on the Mac. Also note that Virex, the last time I checked, was incompatable with my USB Palm device. …

Hello, Quark is a Nightmare. There is a lot of anger and frustration in the industry about the lack of Quark customer care. Best bet is to do the searching for your quark documents, and consult your backups. Christian

Hi, Windows 2000 Pro, and I believe XP Pro, have a utility on them called Windows Backup (WB) that does a decent job of working *once you get it setup properly*. WB in my tests will take your partition and system state, and place it on a network volume, or …

Hello Acidburn, If you are going to do that, be sure to save your work first! I have done some expirements with linux processes, and was able to crash a computer in 20 seconds or so. Christian

Hello, I do not have an Apple Extreme card, but can give you some thoughts on it. Wireless communications happen in the 2.4 GHz range, where a number of other devices transmit and receive, such as a cordless phone, and perhaps wireless remote controls like garage door openers, and maybe …

Apple * Creators of Apple and Macintosh Computers. * Creators of iPOD and assorted utilities and software * Fruit with seeds in the middle * Good source of nutrition (both the fruit, and the company for Micro$oft Scavengers) * a term of affection (she is the apple of my life) …

Hello, Oh wow.. 8.6 has been done for a few years now. You might need to rebuild the desktop in order to get the program to fire off properly. It is also possible that support for those links might not be available in IE 5.1 under OS 8.6 Do the …

Hi, I agree with Narue. You also forgot error checking on your numeric inputs. what happens if a person enters in a negative ticket price? Christian

Hello, What did you mean by Nothing? No audio out of the speakers? ARe your levels set properly? Do you have speakers attached? Latest drivers for the hardware? you might also need to enable something called "playthrough" for you to talk into the Microphone, and have it come out the …

Hello, I cannot delete you either. Pardon the expression there... I couldn't resist. Yup. In order to clean out this box, you are going to need to put the XP disk in there, and delete the partitions out, and install from scratch. Remember that any useful files there that you …

Hi, If you are completely lost with it, try some psuedo code to help you out. Function to read in 10 numbers --> Don't forget error checking Function to add them up Function to average them Function to find smallest Function to find largest Function to list in reverse Main …

Hello, Nothing wrong to being new to computing. There is no embarassing question out there, except perhaps if the computer is not working properly when the power is off. Go back to Expose, and click on the drop down boxes that you see next to the windows. You will find …

Hello, Welcome to DaniWeb. I have not tried to do the USB networking with DSL. See if your DSL device has an ethernet port on it, and if so, you might be able to plug your computer in via the network jack instead. If not, perhaps the USB device came …

Hello, My GUESS is that Windoze is telling it to shut down. Are you running a minimal system that needs more memory? Maybe close to running out of hard drive space? Just curious. DO not give up on apache. I love it on Linux. Christian

Hello, Welcome to DaniWeb. For the best help, it is best to find the proper forum for your subject (C++) and then post some code that you are having troubles with, and the community will look at it and help you out. They will ask you to show your work... …

Hello, I removed the two posts concerning the argument / attitude of the situation that are not relevant to the solution. Let's try to remain focused on the technical aspects of the discussion, and leave our assumptions off the website. Thank you. Christian

Hello, THEORETICALLY, yes. There is a project out there called NDISWRAPPER that I had to use with Fedora 3 to get my wireless card to work properly. Do a search on nDISWRAPPER and see if it is something that you would like to get into. be aware it is not …

Hello, Welcome to DaniWeb Kevin. It is important to remember that moderators are human beings too, and just like a referee in Basketball, sometimes we blow the whistle too soon, and other times, we let the game get too rough and people start throwing punches. Moderation is not an easy …

Hi there, I think by having such a long signature, you are violating the spirit of what a signature line is supposed to be. I hope that the "expanded version" of it will shrink when your contest has run it's course. As it stands now, it is running long, and …

Hello, I am sure there is. My G3 Lombardi will tell me when the battery is getting low, and I know I can go to a control panel, and enable the battery gauges on the menubar. Not having a G4 laptop, I do not know what custom settings are available. …

Hello, Please do not hijack the discussion at hand... the circle comments were completely different than the triangle. It's just not fair to the thread starter. Christian

Hello, Welcome to DaniWeb. I hope you enjoy your time here. I removed your email address because it is against forum policy to solicit answers to a private address... there are good chances that if you have a question concerning Macintosh applications, that someone else out there has the same …

Hello, The problem with GIMP is that it is limited to 256 colors... a lot of photo touch-up work should be done in the thousands or millions of colors range. I tend to use thousands, as well, the eye cannot detect more subtle changes. Then again, some of the more …

Hello, I am not sure if this thread belongs here... there are rules about buying and selling on DaniWeb, and unfortunately at the moment I cannot go there and be sure. Definately NO PIRACY will be tolerated though, so please do not offer where to upload it or download it, …

Hello, I do not have one of these units myself, but wondering if something might be up in the cabling. i hope you have tried to reboot the system with it all wired together to see if that will do it for you. Although Firewire and USB should not matter …

Hello, He was doomed from the start. An ineffective subject line.... Please what? I hope he takes the chance to actually learn from this, and not to merely copy things. I also hope that no one gives him the easy way out. Christian

Hello, It could be line noise, or the amplification / deamplification of the sound. You will want to use line in and line out if possible, and high quality shielded cables. It would even help if you could ground the units together. IF you still have noise, you can purchase …

Hello, There are a number of sites out there that have browser restrictions... you would see it more on the Mac and Linux, unfortunately, and even a couple of generations of DaniWeb had funny things happen too. IE is evil, but some places, such as banks, or if you have …

Hello, I support Dani on this. Signatures are not to be mistaken for shortcuts around advertising rules, regulations, and earnings for the host site. To be honest, I would prefer a single line of text 2 80 characters for a signature. Why? Save costs for the bandwidth, avoid cpu-intensive graphics …

Hello, I am curious by the expression that "nothing works". Is this sudden? Brand new computer out of the box? Purchased from a friend? I'd like to help you repair your OS X installation. Christian

Hello, We have to assume you have the best of intentions here. If you have power over the box, you could write a crontab to have you send an email per minute x 24 x 7 and that will be a lot of emails. Let it run over night. You …

Hello, Just be sure to look at the ports on your hub. Some of them have an UPLINK port, which is designed for HUB to Hub connections. Of the hubs that I seen with said port, the one immediately next to it is often "dead". Check out the specs if …

Hello, When you refer to the C: or the D: in the Windoze world, you are actually looking at a local partition of hard drive space, or a network volume. Macs see ANY storage space as a volume, meaning the boot partition, or another storage location, a USB store device, …

Hello, I am lax, and am sorry for being gone so long. To save the data off, you need to either find a CD-ROM burning solution, or a network solution. Let us know if you have either available to you. WIth the network, you can setup another computer to receive …

Hi, Yep. Agree with Yellow. Laptops are NOT designed to be expanded in that function. Now, you might find a PCMCIA video output card for various devices, but as a rule, laptops are closed designs. Christian

Hello, This is definately an interesting scenerio. I got around it by using eGroupware on the Linux server, and having everyone do things via a web client. I also issued a certificate so that the communications would be encrypted. But that also means that everyone else would have to change …
