AndAlso and OrElse perform what is known as short curcuit evaluation.
What this means is that if the first argument makes it such that the result is known then the second argument is not tested.
For example if you have:
If DayIsTuesDay() And DayisSomeonesBirthday()
Both DayIsTuesday() and DayIsSomeonesBirthday() will be valuated.
However if you have:
If DayIsTuesDay() AndAlso DayisSomeonesBirthday()
and DayIsTuesday returns false then there is no point executing DayIsSomeonesBirthday
Where your second operation is doing something slow (like reading from a database) using short curcuit evaluations can significantly speed up your application.

You may have to be a bit careful though. In the statement
If DayIsTuesDay() And DayisSomeonesBirthday()
if "DayIsTuesday" alters data, and "DayIsSomeonesBirthday" also alters data, you might not want to short-cut... for example (and yes, its a crap example!)
if ClearUserTable() and ClearPasswordTable() then
messagebox.show("Tables Cleared")
end if
In this case, you would definitely NOT want to shortcut the second function using AndAlso

The VB.Net keyword And
is equivalent to the C# operator &
The VB.Net keyword AndAlso is equivalent to the C# operator &&
The VB.Net keyword Or is equivalent to the C# operator |
The VB.Net keyword OrElse is equivalent to the C# operator ||
The subliminal message is RTM[^]?

Nope. IMHO default behaviour should be short-cut and the keywords AndAlso, OrElse are simply foolish, hence my subliminal still stands.

Right.
Read The Fantastic Manual.
Apparently no one does anymore, even asking Google seems too much for some.

As a minor semantic difference - the & operator in C# is a bitwise and, whereas && is the logical and which also shortcircuits. (Like C++)
I'm used to using & with caution - coming from a C++ background - you could have two "true" results from a function - but 1 & 2 == false  In C# this cautioning really doesnt apply though.

There is no semantic difference.
The following are *exactly* equivalent:
VB: C#:
And &
Or |
AndAlso &&
OrElse ||
The VB 'And' is *both* a bitwise operator and a non-short-circuiting logical operator, as is the C# '&' operator. Ditto for 'Or' and '|'.
They produce identical results when used in the same situations.
Obviously, it usually makes sense to use 'AndAlso' and 'OrElse' in most logical evaluation situations, but occasionally 'And' and 'Or' may be preferred, in exactly the same cases where '&' and '|' may be preferred in C#.

Hi All!
I Am Using Visual Studio 2005 .NET Standard Edition and I have run into (Yet Another)
HUGE Problem.
My MenuStrip Isn't Working.
It's inside a tabcontrol near the bottom of my form and isn't my forms main MenuStrip, when my
app starts, as if by magic, all menustripitems on the control dissappear! Leaving an empty menustrip!
It's really been bugging me, i've tried refreshing it, toggline it's visibility and everything.
nothing Seems to work.
Any Help Would really be appreiciated!

Hey Everybody I Solved it! 
The Bug itself seems to be extremely difficult, if not impossible to fix BUT by simply docking the
toolstripcontainer and menustrip inside a panel everything works fine!
It seems that the tabcontrol and the toolstripcontainer and/or menustrip don't mix well, but hey,
the panel method works, and works well!
Thanks!

I thought i had it but i didn't.
And it's driving me MAD 
Somebody please help me, it's been haunting me ever since i first bought VS 2005!
Thanks.

First off, you should not have anything in a tabcontrol except for tabpages. If the menu is in a tabpage then their shouldn't be any problem.

how can i prevent my data not to overlap when printing it...i am using vb.net...hope you could help me...thanks

read the sticky at the top of the forum 'need help' is not a valid subject, everyone who posts, needs help.
If you write good print code, it won't overlap. Hard to say more without seeing code.

You could try to write a custom control to do that. Good luck, it won't be trivial.

Doesn't this create an array with 10 strings ? what if there's more than 10 chars in the string ? why create an array of strings and not chars ? This is very bad code.
I also don't see how it helps, he didn't ask to flip the string, but for it to show backwards, in general use, I assumed.

Try this code
Private Sub TextBox1_KeyPress(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.KeyPressEventArgs) Handles TextBox1.KeyPress
TextBox1.Text = e.KeyChar & sender.text
e.KeyChar = Nothing
End Sub
some more validations has to be add as per your requirement.

yeah, this is a start. The cases to watch are, where is the cursor ? What happens if the user uses the arrows ? What if they press delete ?

@ Christian Graus
If u observe my answer,
very first line i wrote
" Try this code" : that means am not giving conformation it will 100% works. and am not giving 100% Solution. am just giving a suggestion.
and last line i wrote,
" some more validations has to be added......"
that mean Programs has to add his default validations like u wrote
"The cases to watch are, where is the cursor ? What happens if the user uses the arrows ? What if they press delete ? "
====================================
here is the code
If Char.IsLetterOrDigit(e.KeyChar) Then
TextBox1.Text = e.KeyChar & sender.text
e.KeyChar = Nothing
End If
Thanks

Yes, I saw what you said, I was not contradicting you. I was more adding to it, if he wants to build on your code, I was being more specific. You said 'some more validations...' and you were right. I was suggesting what some of those may need to be.
