Growing up in Canada, there are two post-secondary education systems: community college or university.
In the words of a university professor, "If you go to college, you are nothing but a pair of hands". You won't be the manager, you'll be the worker.
Well, I chose community college where I learned real life programming; we worked on applications for businesses in town.
My friends that went to university graduated with a degree, but were lacking on actual programming skills. They understand theory, but not application.
So... more than 30 years after graduating, I truly enjoy my job - and being a pair of hands.

Now I really feel old. 
One of these[^], with a subscription to this[^], was how I got started.
VB6 came out shortly after I'd finished University and started work.

I'm old :/
I started learning back in late '84, but don't remember the name of the first reference book I used on my old Atari 800XL...
Got this one later: The IBM Basic Handbook[^]
And it's still on my bookshelf... Ah, nostalgia...

Good Ghu, you poor bastard, you have my sincerest sympathies, not being able to enjoy food (and I presume wine) must be ... words fail me.

Thanks, it does suck!

$49!

$49 for 3 days of food (all meal included), i.e. ~$17 per day, ~ $6 per meal.
As far as I am concerned it's cheaper than my current costs!

This is Soylent white (not green), phew, saved!

Soylent was only people in the film - in the original book (Make Room, Make Room by Harry Harrison), Soylent was a mixture of soya and lentil (hence the name) and IIRC Soylent Green had algae added which gave it its colour.

No help. I saw many.
There is no cure for food intolerances.

Not what I meant.
Did you discuss with your doctor your planned dietary considerations (the all in one super-drink)? I would be very careful. I'm sure you are, but felt like mentioning it, anyhow.
Good luck.

Oh, that! ok 
Well I trust that soylent cover all bases.
And if it doesn't I trust that problems won't come dire and suddenly but will start with cramps, craving and other weird sensation which are, I believe, a good indicators of incomplete diet.
I paid a lot of attention to those signs, I have to!

Anyone know of a good, FREE C# secure FTP class?
I found some here and on CodePlex but they're all lacking in some ways. Just wondering if an CP'ers know of a good class.
If it's not broken, fix it until it is.

Yes, just used that here. Works well.

Wow, I just downloaded the source. There's a whole bunch of source files. This seems WAY too complicated.
I'll spend some time looking at it, but I'm turned off already.

Well, that sucks. You might want to look at the library Nish and others have pointed out then, I guess.
|

I use edtftpnet. docs say secure is available though I haven't tried it. After moving to 10, I lost the ability to use my ftp client of choice (ws_ftp pro) and after trying a few free ones, decided to write my own. The edtftpnet library is well documented and easy to use.

I have a demo of their Pro class. Works nice but they want $300 for the DLL and another $600 for the code.

Thanks. I have their Client app. Works nice. Is the assembly secure FTP?
