Start by putting a timer and a text box on a form. Set the timer's [I]enabled[/I] property to TRUE and [I]interval[/I] to 2000 (2 seconds, 2000 milliseconds) Now in the timer's TIMER function, increment a value and put it in the text box's [I]text[/I] property. You now should have a …

Only the direction each '*' is moving needs to be saved. The coordinates of the first '*' needs to be remembered, but not each one. And the coordinate where the snake turns has to be remembered. And rather than reallocating the size, just make a static array. Define it to …

[QUOTE=jwenting;303774]globals are evil. They reek of design errors.

Another thing you need to do is indent your code properly. Break the habit now of left-justified code because as you progress to larger programs, the bad habit will be harder to break and your code becomes unreadable very quicky.

I don't see a problem here. You claim [code=cplusplus] if (OpenFileDialog->Execute()) { dave = OpenFileDialog->FileName; std::ifstream infile(dave.c_str(), std::ios::in | std::ios::binary); } [/code]doesn't work. Well, [INLINECODE]infile[/INLINECODE] doesn't take C-Strings, does it? Then you say [code=cplusplus] dave = "H:\\MyDocuments\\file"; std::ifstream infile(dave.c_str(), std::ios::in | std::ios::binary); [/code] works fine. So use the form that …

It would be easier to read youe header record, then read the number of students specified into a student array. After you add a new student to the array, recreate the file by outputting the header and all the students.

OK, here's the synopsis of the problem 1) you have private values in a class and you cannot change the class 2) private values cannot be accessed in a class without the class allowing access 3) if the class does not have methods created that allow access, you cannot access …

First you need to figure out what's wrong -- and that's the hard part. One thing that's probably wrong is way too many programs and services getting loaded when you boot like Real Audio, Quicktime, and other.

I think you should do it. How else do you get experience except by doing it? Don't let others tell you you can't or shouldn't. Prove 'em wrong.

How about a slight modification that uses the the knowledge that c-strings are always terminated with \0: [CODE=cplusplus] void cremoveFirstChars(char * buffer) { char* actualMessage = new char[sizeof(buffer)]; p = -1; // initialize the pointer do { p++; // next character actualMessage[p] = buffer[p+2]; } while (!actualMessage[p]); // stop after …

No. Once compiled the source code cannot be retrieved.

Doesn't VC++ have an option to create a deployment or application wizard? With this you create a setup file and the DLLs needed are loaded into the target system.

While you are waiting for a key, call you cursor blink function. When a key is pressed, stop calling it. Process the key and go back to your wait loop.
