Can you post your input file please? Also, what are the values of `row` and `clo`? I assume that `clo` is supposed to be `col`. If so, I urge you to develop either better typing skills or better proofreading skills. It's simply not sufficient to just spew out a mess …

Looks to me like you have put zero effort into doing it yourself. Please read the [Daniweb Posting Rules](https://www.daniweb.com/welcome/rules) and [Suggestions For Posting Questions](https://www.daniweb.com/programming/threads/435023/read-this-before-posting-a-question).

Those recommendations are worthless without an explanation as to why you think each belongs on that list. Keep in mind that different people have different requirements and as such, what is a "good" tablet for one person might not be "good" for another.

I would strongly advise against doing that. Alt-Tab is a basic Windows function and I can't imagine that you would want to override that except for some underhanded purpose.

A few years ago, the Canadian government (at that time it was a majority Conservative government under Stephen Harper) proposed legislation which would have weakened the privacy rights of all Canadians. Part of the justification was to allow easier apprehension and prosecution of people trafficking in child pornography. The justice …

It's been quite a while since I used a version of BASIC that old but I suspect balance = float (input("OK, ", name, ". Please enter the cost of the ", item, ": ")) is complaining because of the number of parameters you give for `input`. Try concatenating all of …

I suggest you do something like dim qry as string = "INSERT INTO Table VALUES ('" & PatientID.Text & "', '" & fname.Text & "'," & lname.Text & "')" and examine the contents of `qry`. There is no way for us to see what the query is without knowing the …

This is your first post and you have already made some big mistakes. 1. You didn't ask for help. You demanded it. 1. You didn't show any proof that you had tried to do this yourself. 1. You screamed in the thread title. Are 37 `!` really necessary? 1. You …

I corrected the code formatting. Please note that of lines 29 and 30 Exit Sub rs.Close there is no way that line 30 will ever get executed so it is possible this is leading to your error by leaving the connection open. Also, line 141 If rs.BOF = False And …

You have to iterate through all of the items in the listview collection and convert them to string before you write them out. If the collection is small then you can create the output buffer in a loop then use WriteAllText to blast it out in one step. I suggest …

I think the problem is that people see `Code Snippet` in the drop down and think that because they are including a snippet of code with their question they should select that option. - Captain Obvious

Because you can write clearer and more concise code if you overload operators so that they can be used on objects. For example, you might want to overload `+` so that you can write object1 + object2 instead of creatinig an `Add` method which would look like object1.Add(object2) The first …

Two possible solutions: 1. Put code in the text_changed event for the two textboxes (you can use the same event handler for both) that computes the sum and puts it in the third textbox. 1. Because you are getting the values from a database why not just add sum(val1,val2) to …

vbScript - Extending Application Functionality with vbScript and AutoIt Sometimes you'll find that one of your favourite applications is missing some useful functionality.

I'm far from a python pro but it seems to me that xx is local to plotSVC and goes out of scope once that function exits. I suggest you try to keep all module code contiguous. You have defned plotSVC in the middle of your mainline code. This is a …

That seems like the type of task more suited to a script than an app. If you copy the following into a file named `prefix.vbs` you can do what you requested. set fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject") if wscript.arguments.unnamed.count <> 2 then Wscript.Echo "prefix <filename> ""string""" Wscript.Quit end if infile = wscript.arguments.unnamed(0) …

To be fair, "password" could be the encrypted/hashed value. It is not necessarily in clear text. Although I suspect you are correct in your assumption.

You can't. But you can do what I do. I set up a folder with links to each forum I want to go to with the filters I want (which are exactly none). For example, Hardware and Software links to `https://www.daniweb.com/hardware-and-software/all/_/1` instead of `https://www.daniweb.com/hardware-and-software/1` ![2019-02-27_123710.jpg](/attachments/large/3/a67ce411ec3db7fe33c1bf809104d303.jpg)
