I've written a desktop app using C# WinForms and I'd like to try using ads to generate revenue. Ad libraries exist for mobile platforms but I haven't come across any which can be used for desktop applications. Do any exist? I looked into AdMob, and it looks like there was a point where there was a desktop SDK, but presently AdMob is mobile only.
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Jeff

Yes, I've already done that. If you look at the results from your search you will see they are for mobile platforms. There are some hits which state they support desktop but when you go to their site (like Crisp Media) they in fact only support mobile. So if you know of any ad platforms which actually support Windows desktop, I'd like to know their names.

It's a long list. Keep reading.
Truthfully, it's rare to see ads in a desktop app. I don't think you're going to find anyone with any experience in it. There may be 8,000,000+ members here, but only a handful of those are regulars here and answer questions.
You are most likely doing your own research on this one.

I am a year 1 engineering student and is quite new to programming. Just learnt the very basics of C++ like looping, pointer, array (not even inheritence, etc).
Recently I was taught about windows form application, and yet I only know about double-click on button to add some codes in the event-handler upon clicking, and MessageBox::Show(). I will learn some GDI+ and will be required to display some images moving in the form.
If I want to develop a dummy gun game, in which a bullet will be displayed upon clicking (using GDI+), I will need to get the current position of the mouse upon clicking. I looked up the msdn and other search engines but just couldn't understand what class or object or function I should use for this purpose. I could only find something like:
public:
MouseEventArgs(MouseButtons Button, int Clicks,
int X, int Y, int Delta);
But I don't know where I should put it in, and how I can get access to the position X and Y. I would like the whole form to be possible for mouse-clicking without any button. Can someone help me?

The MouseEventHandler[^] delegate should provide what you want.

As it sounds like you don't have the first clue where to start, I would recommend that you start by buying this[^] book. Read it, study it, try the samples. Everything that you want to do will be covered in there I suspect.

I would also go through the tutorials that you can find in this site too

Nothing like picking up a book on VB.Net and learning using examples in that book.

You should post the same general post about two days apart. Follow the suggestions from the other posters with the books, as the books suggested are really good. There are plenty of quality articles on this site that can help out. I will leave that as a learning exercise for you to find them. Start off with simple applications, exploring and learning what you are trying to achieve, one step at a time, and work your way up. Good luck, and people will try their best to answer any questions you might have with your application, design, etc.

i dont know how to use vb.net very well especially the coding aspect. and i need to build a window application for collecting data from user and retrieving from the database. i don't know the database to use either sql or Access. i need the coding procedures for building an window application and the way to connect it to the database. thanks

You could start here 3-tier architecture in C#[^] it's in C# but the concepts should be very much the same.

If I were you, I'd seriously consider using something like Lightswitch[^] to ease the burden of developing your application.

There are quite a few ways to achieve your goal, which includes the use of ODBC (Which other people still consider, My advice stay away), have a look at ADO EF Tutorial

Just bringing this idea up to see if it might hold any merit to developers or just plain crazy. I've realized for a long time now that no matter how many CPU's you have you are still limited by the Software developers incorporating multi-threading for whatever number of cores.
My Question is. What if we were to have the OS, which already knows how many Cores are present distribute the operating processes on different clock cycles to the multiple cores in a serial type effect. Everyone know data is streamed to the processor serially every clock cycle. if the OS were to know the number of CPU's and integrate a method of switching between them distributing data to each one every clock cycle, it seems to me the more cores you had the faster the information could be processed no matter whether the programs were written to optimize multi-core or not.

it is.
each thread executing on a core has state (in the CPU registers, in the stack, etc), instructions from one thread have to remain on the same core to work with that state; switching a thread to another core is a rather expensive kernel operation, one would typically like to avoid (that is what "thread affinity" is about).
Furthermore cores have caches to vastly improve performance; and these caches most often are local to the core, so having the data in one core's cache isn't going to help the thread when executing on a different core.
And finally, CPU performance isn't the only bottleneck, there are other limitations, such as memory bandwidth, and disk and network performance. Therefore, adding a few threads to an app may be good, adding a large number generally is counterproductive.
In all a very bad idea.
