Paul's right. Vista and Server 2008 are the last operating systems that will support the VB6 runtime. We are strongly urging ISVs to migrate to .Net if they still have VB6 products.

Heh. That should've happened at about VB v3.0...

Also, if you're into writing ActiveX components, then VB is an excellent tool for testing purposes. That's the only good use for VB, IMO.

Especially if there's alot of legacy code still floating around out there to be brought up to .NET.

Hi there
This is my first post, first I have to let you know I just start some class on programming language I decide to with C++ because a teacher say C++ is best for a first language

thanks an advence for your reply

If you are going to be writing operating systems and embedded systems then yes, this is the language I'd learn. If you are not going to be doing those things then there are better languages to learn.
The question is what do you want to do once you learn to program? What sort of programs do you want to write? I see no point in learning one language if the things you want to do are best suited to another language.
It is like a teacher recommending that you learn French as your first foreign language because it is the "best" language when you really want to visit Germany.

Yes, but you won't get your code written for you. If you need advice we will give it, but we expect you to read the documentation and articles on the subject - if you don't understand those then we'll try and help you out.

As the guy told you before me, we will help you theoretically but not practically
Also according to you language question I have to say I am more on the side of your teacher then the other guy, but ok.
Maybe this post give you a little knowledge. You have to know comparing some language in order to learn programming is a bit of a 'religious' question.

Learn C first, and become a master with pointers.
Then when you learn a language like Java -- you will feel superior to the community of wannabes that couldn't hack it, and bailed for the easy road.
If you use UNIX or Linux, first learn vi and become a master. You will forever hate programming with a mouse and wonder why it was ever used for programming.
Kind regards,

Why not go the whole hog and advocate assembly language. Hell, don't be such a wimp learn how to program in Binary.

insecure?
Something I said offend you?
I was going to add assembly language, but thought that with the material I put out there, he might have a while before he could get to it.
IMHO pointers were difficult for some to comprehend, so Sun created a language so they didn't have to deal with it.
Maybe this person isn't one of them, and is able to learn what goes on "under the hood" in order to be a better software engineer.
Maybe that's why some are called programmers and software developers and others are called software engineers

Nope. I was just adding a little extra in the light-hearted stakes. Don't knock it - I started off learning machine programming in binary. You spent three hours punching in a simple program and only discovered that the listing you'd been coding from was smudged and you should have entered a 1 instead of a 0 half an hour before. Yet here I am, nearly 30 years later still doing what I love.

I really need to create a coding consortium. I can get way more work than I can do but I need some ASP .Net C# developers with HTML/Javascript experience to boot.
I must have United States ONLY developers as some of the businesses I work with have rules that dictate federal laws requiring U.S. labor only. If you are interested I really need to erect something so contact me and let me know. This isn't going to be a mountain of work immediately. I need to feel good about the respondents, their skills and their availability. I can host all the development and production servers including SVN or other source sharing tools. I can host all the technology I just need bright minds to participate. If you think you are going to make more than $40 an hour please don't respond. None of my customers pay more than that and if that's too low for just move along as their is nothing to see here.
You must have the development skills as well as the ability to work directly with the customer to establish requirements, deliverables and manage the entire project life-cycle. I will procure the work but you are going to do *ALL* of it. I will assist as needed but by and large this is sub-contracting work done behind my corporate front. You will get a code-frog.com email address and you will operate under that premise that you work for me. All the source code you work on is considered my code by default and I retain all rights to it. That's the default rule. In reality all of it except that which pertains to confidential client specific code is yours to do with as you please I just have to protect the concepts and ideas of clients by invoking my domain onto your code. This can all be discussed per project and I think you'll be quite happy to see that 98% of your code is yours and in most cases 100% though I will need full copies of all source just in case you get killed by Beowulf or something.
Along those lines you have to be willing to support your code 24x7. I will be the first line of response but I may need your help. If you have other questions fire away.

i have been working on the DotNet Platform (Web Services) for the past one year.I want to obtain an MCP now. But i am confused whether to choose an MCP with Web Services (exam 70-529) on which i have already worked or go for MCP with Web Applications (exam 70-528) on which i havent worked yet. I was inclined to chose the later so that i could diversify my profile.. but i dont know much about the market demand for either? some advice would really help.

It is a bit of work, but you might be able to set the printer to an file writer and print the sections in different files. Such that you have afterwards 10 Files out of one.
Then you can print one of another.
But I think there would be better solutions, especially when you have to do this more than once.
Cheers
