Dude, 2 things. 1. Put your code into the code tags 2. Don't just give him the answer to his homework, what good will that do him. You can help him and give him clues, but don't just do it for him. Also, your code seems overly complicated and there …

Do you know anything about the .NET framework? Or any of the languages used in it (C#, VB.NET, C++, ASP.NET[well that's kinda like VB and C#], J#, etc) if you know any of those you should be fine. Or they could be testing you on what the .NET framework provides …

If you're application consists of of a main form (i.e. one created by using Application.Run(new Form()); ) then closing that form exits the application. Although, if you're doing it programaticly, then I wouldn't use that.

C# For the absolute beginner is quite good. Really, I haven't seen that many "bad" C# beginner books. You just need to search amazon and you'll find like a thousand. Most of the time from reading the customer reviews you can find out a good amount.

What? You want to be able to select part of an image so the user can have further usage? Please rephrase ;)

try: [code] publicstatic Response Message(string doc) { XmlTextReader textReader = new XmlTextReader(doc); XmlDocument xmlDoc = new XmlDocument(); xmlDoc.Load(textReader); return Response.Message(xmlDoc); } [/code] If that doesn't work, post the xml document you're trying to read.

jext.org was made in java...I believe netbeans.org was made in java. Those are not ones I made, but you'll see the capabilities of Java by looking at them. Java is a very powerful language, just put your mind to it.

I often see people asking the same question over and over, "How do I learn to program, and where do I start?" Some people may take that question to the next level by asking, "Which language should I learn first?". The answer to those questions is fairly simple, but also …

Some other classes you could take the next year is some computer science classes. Those could give you a small taste of what the general idea is. Also, be sure you get plenty of math, it will help you tremendously. Good luck.

on IRC, never abused it. In forums, never abused it (or not that I know of). On other stuff...I've used what I know against some people before...not to do anything bad or illegal, just to gain an advantage :P muwhahaha

What exactly are you wanting to do?

webmonkey also has some good tutorials if I remember correctly. Another book you might want to look at is The Complete Idiots guide to JavaScript. It's pretty good. Though I agree with csgal, I'd learn a 'real' language. This is not to say you can't also know JS, just don't …

Do you mean an engine? If that's what you mean, then just search google for a Java Game Engine you'll find tons of free ones. Otherwise, I'm not sure I know what you mean. :P

First outline what all you want the program to do. Then I'd go in and start implementing the structure of the system in coments and psuedo code. Then you can go in and fill in the blanks. But the main point is to FIRST PUT IT ON PAPER. :)

Not that I know of, unless you're using something like a factory that would programatically choose from a list of predefined choices...You're going to need something to start with.

Some good sites for php would be php.net webmonkey.com hotscripts.com (for example code) google.com (hehe, lots of stuff there) or get a book, some good ones are sam's teach yourself php in 24 hours beginning php Those are just some ones I liked. Ultimatly, PHP is a good language to …

C# is also supported by more things. Such as language specific tasks, and ASP.NET. Where as C++.NET isn't. Not to mention the easy at which you can develope with C#.

You can do it with the Session and Application objects...but it's better if you use Cookies or GET/POST methods.

Yeah, C# doesn't support falling through on switch statements ;)

So what are you wanting suggestions and guidelines for?! Are you wanting project ideas, general guidelines, what? You have to be more specific and tell us what you want help with.

I've been wondering about console programming. Not the book example type stuff, but the 'real' console programming. Stuff that seems to use things like ncurses, or something like that I assume. I found a good tutorial on what I'm looking for: [url]http://www.adrianxw.dk/SoftwareSite/Consoles/Consoles1.html[/url] but I'm wanting something that goes a little …

Meh, flash isn't good for long term stuff. That's just my opion. I like flash for little cartoons and games and stuff, not applications. [url]http://www.daniweb.com/tutorials/tutorial16923.html[/url] Read that.

You have to set the Visible property to false, or call the this.Hide() method.

Huh? Do you want to check to see if someone uploaded the same image twice? You could check the filename and filesize...other than that I'm not sure what you're asking.

You could use the Process or ProcessStartInfo classes to call the perl.exe process with the argument being the script. Then you could use the properties of said classes to see if the script is still running. To actually get info from it, you're probably going to have to write the …

I've only used PHP out of those three, I like it a lot. It's got it's strengths and weaknesses. Though after reading your post, I think I'm going to look into ColdFusion since I'm mainly a Java programmer. Thanks for the post! :D

I've got a project going where I need to do some extensive searching, so I decided it would be best to put that code into a new thread. To make it a little more user friendly I decided to pop up a dialog box with a little animated image informing …

Here is the programming FAQ v2.0.1! If you see something to add, let me know and I'll do it. Consider this one a beta, because I'm not near done, but at least I'm further than I've been before :) [url]http://home.ripway.com/2003-12/42676/ProgrammingFAQv2.0.pdf[/url]

Don't quote me on this, but it might have something to do with making it a service, rather than an application.

Because of some suggestions, I'm going to try to gather some good programming resources in this thread. If you know any good websites, either post them here, or PM me and I'll add them to this post. [b] Tutorials, Books, Utils, Misc[/b] [list] [*] [url]http://www.techbooksforfree.com/[/url] (Free Books) [*] [url]http://www.freeprogrammingresources.com/books.html[/url] (Tutorials) …

You need to post specifc problems, not just "Help Me". Plus, your deadline is already up, so this is just for future reference.

[code] int[] x = y = z = new int[10]; // or I THINK this works too int[] x, y, z = new int[10]; [/code]

I've never actually done that, but I'm guessing you're going to have to create some sort of BinaryStream then create a file out of that, then use the BitMap.LoadFromFile() method to load the picture....I'm not actualy sure though.

What do you mean? I would just open up something like Visual Studio .NET and start with what I normally call "MainForm" which is the main GUI, then create the main functionality on there and create a main menu with all the different things the user can do, then go …

Actually what you should do is add an event handler to either the Load event or the VisibleChanged event. It all depends on if you want the code to execute [b]every[/b]time the form is shown, or [b]only the first[/b] time the form is shown. Obviously, use Load if you only …

I think you need to invoke a method on a client computer that calls the Directory.GetFolders() (can't remember if it's Directory or DirectoryInfo) method and pass an argument of type SpecialFolder which is an enumeration and contains different values for "Desktop" and the like.

have you ever looked at [url]http://sf.net/[/url] there might some projects there you could join.

A programming language derived from C++ (which implies C as well) with focus on Object orientation and a runtime environment.

Something fairly simple woudl be a Chat Bot. Something that you type stuff two and it responds based on your input. You could do it command line, or you could make a swing application.

You're probably going to want to use C. Since it can be low level or high level. I don't know of any books on the subject though.

What is the code you're running. I think I might know what your problem is, but I have to see the code you're using to confirm my suspissions.

Java, vb (/me shivers), or maybe .net It also depends on what the target phone is.

Read about the ProcessInfo and ProcessStartInfo classes. Also, you could check into some of the win32 API functions that might be able to help with this task.

It depends, what's your situation? You can use stuff like PInvoke to call stuff from the Win32 API. Or you can add references to COM components and call their methods directly. It all depends on what you want to do.

Strings are immutable. Meaning you can NEVER change them. So if I do this: [code] String s1 = "Pig"; s1 += "Horse"; [/code] I've just made 3 permenant strings. I've made "Pig" "Horse" and "PigHorse". All strings are constants, so they will never be changed. When you change a reference …

You're going to need to explain that one a little better :P

I normally just extract to a temporary folder, like C:\tmp\ then after I install, I just delete all of c:\tmp\ Those files are just install files, so it really doesn't matter where you put them. I wouldn't suggest extracting them to your desktop though, because sometimes there is several thousand …

Have you tried msdn.microsoft.com or the .NET SDK Documentation? Both of those provide good explanations...I prefer msdn, but to each his own.

Can't forget [url]http://www.thewebmachine.com/[/url] that's an awesome site that i love using! or just search google, you will find thousands of good tuts :)
