Well, with the total lack of detail and any error messages, the best anyone can tell you is that you screwed something up.
Seriously, why are you starting new developement work in VB6? It's been dead and unsupported for YEARS now. VB.NET Express is free and downloadable from here[^].

True, but can still create programs from it and it still works.
Simple Thanks and Regards,

and you can learn a bunch of bad habits from it that you're going to have to unlearn when VB6 no longer works at all.

Please Help me with this I will make you a program on visual basic 2010, im just learning visual basic 6.0. I have made a lot of programs with it but im more familiar with visual basic 2010, I found that they are almost the same, but anyway I need some help with this program. I would up load it here but it says the file is to big. So thanks, Oh I can program using C#2010 or C++ 2010 and visual basic 2010 just tell me what you would like on a program and what language you want me to use. Thanks for looking at my post, Oh, I tried to e-mail, but the owner has not got back to me. Thanks. http://www.mediafire.com/?7k4zrq5c6n7a2hh[^]

Sorry, but nobody is going to download some file(s) from a web site in order to figure out what your problem is. If you have a technical question then post it here and include any extracts of your program that is causing you problems.

I'd like a program that generates next week's winning lottery numbers for UK lottery - must guarantee they are winning. You can choose between a Lisp or APL implementation.

mediafire with curious file name..
i won't download it.

All files on mediafire look like this (I use it myself) but I still wouldn't download it!

If you are trying to share source-code, then take a look at the article-section. I doubt that there will be many people who are going to learn VB6, as the language is on it's way out. If you find both languages very similar, then it'd be wise to switch to something from this millennium, not the past one.
This site has got 8 million+ members. I don't think that the owner will have the time to respond to personal emails very often.

i've heard it called true basic, but i'm talking about the basic i learned in 84. i was good at that, and i'm trying to write a program in basic, but can't find a compiler. i looked on the internet all day today with no luck. specifically, i need to know what file extension to save, if i need to use anything besides notepad, and if i need a compiler. thanx

take your pick here[^]. Took me 5 seconds to find.
I expect most of them use .BAS by default and accept any extension you specify explicitly.

You need to look at what you are trying to achieve, then decide on the tool to do the job (it won't be basic BTW) then look at the requirements for those tools.
A better question might have been - I want to achieve X, what tools will be easiest to use to do this (background, basic 25 years out of date). Good luck with that one

It's called Small Basic[^] But it's not like QBasic.

If you're serious about Basic you may want to invest some time in studying VB.NET. Microsoft offer a great free IDE[^] which includes all the tools you will need to get started.

they don't really help. let me expand on what i'm doing. i'm trying to write to the hd directly and use the basic i'm familiar with. i studied python and visual basic as well, they are not really suited to what i'm doing. the basic i used is called ti basic, found that last night. i found a bunch of variants, but i may as well use vb if i have to use one i don't know. i'm thinking i'll have to use assembly language to get the job done, it involves writing repeated 1's to the hd, then 0's, then 1's again. from what i'm reading, ti basic would be great for this, but i can't find a compiler that works. if i can find some way to interact with the drivers of the hard drive, that would be the best way to do what i'm trying to do. like tell the driver to write to the hd til it's full, the do it again. i know i could use debug to write to sectors of the hd, but if i mess up, there goes the box i'm working on. it's sort of advanced and may well be above my level of expertise, so if you can't help me, i understand.

What system do you expect to run this on? If it's Windows, UNIX or Linux you should probably be thinking of using C/C++ as you will most likely need to make system calls that are not so easy to do in Basic. I would be interested to know what you expect to happen when you tell the disk driver to write to the disk until it's full. More than likely your system will stop dead.

it's similar to a disk wipe, except instead of algorithms, i want a loop to write 1's, then 0's, then 1's. and yes, the whole idea is for the system to stop, the trick i'm trying to work out is how to make the loop run until it finishes. i'm thinking that anything i compile in any language will stop when enough of the hd gets erased. probably have to go with assembly language, and what i've actually picked up so far has been relatively easy to understand. i actually learned enough from what i read that i was able to fix a couple of programs i wrote which weren't working.

Hello,
Forgive if this is in the wrong forum. I didn't see a better one to use. i'm confused on the mapping of a 1 to many. I have 1 table with a primary key of userid. I have another table with the primary key of userid and authid. I created an association of a 1 to many (because one user record to many occurrances of security authorizations for that user). When I assign userid to userid - that's fine but obviously I don't have a match for authid -> and the compiler isn't happy about that. So how does 1 to many work or am I missing something  - in order to have a many, the primary key can't match because it 2nd tables record's primary key has to be unique?
Any help would be appreciated.

How about the one titled Database[^]?

I would guess that your composite primary key is incorrect. Ask this question, can a user have multiple types of authorisations. If yes then you need a many to many link
User - UserID
Authorisation - AuthID
Link - LinkID - unique constraint (userid/authid)
I hate composite primary keys - personal bias only!

Thank you for your reply. Yes, a person can have 1-N authorizations.
I guess i'm still confused with 1 to many in this context. From the user record, I wanted to include the auths table to get at the auths relating to that person. In order to have a 1 to many, the 2nd table must have an additional field(s) defined as the primary key for uniqeness. But EF seems to want a matching of 1-1 of primary keys. Not sure how that's can be. Unless there's something about the mapping I completely am overlooking.

How to retrieve the particular row from the database table to the datagridview.
I will be comparing text box with one of the column name and if that matches then only that row should get display in the datagridview/
how to do this?

What have you tried?
There are quite some walktroughs on MSDN, also on the DataGridView - Google knows where.
