I'm in the process of updating our app to look more XP.
One of the things I've been doing is Letterbox mode (or widescreen).
For an example look at the XP login screen (non-networked/home edition).
I have a set of classes that do all the hard work.
Is this of interest to anyone?

I think, there will be sure some ppl who want to look on it. e.g. I'll at least look at the implementation and results

It looks like codeproject is only for C++ and C# people. This web administrator lacks knowledge in VB. so chris doesn't entertain articles about vb

I'm a VB coder and I found a lot of good stuff here. The main problem is to be able to understand the code exposed. btw - I didn't know till I red your message that the foolish could be so painfull...

Coding a site as amazing as this without VB knowledge? Yeah right dude - you do know what ASP is based on, don't you?

I am reequired to write a program so that a particular set of events is done repetitively for a number of times so as to detect memory leakage.
How can i use a dll(screen event recorder dll) so that it can be used in my application and how can i access the member function

I have to call a lot of SQL statments in a dll  - extended stored procedure and I don't know how ! I'm using the ODS library but which routine do I have to use ? Please help me with some links to Open Server Library or some articles about how to hide a stored procedure code in a dll !
Thanks,

Is there any way to measure the distance between two points on a network? Say by measuring signal degredation or somthing similar?
I just think it would be cool if you could make a network/domain map using this method. Of course, there would be no way to track direction, except maybe by using the sender and receiver IP if on two different domains.
Maybe I'm smoking too much crack.

I remeber reading somewhere that you could work out which continent a server resided on based on its TTL value. But I also remember reading elsewhere that this was during the early days of the net and probably doesn't work as well as it used to.

I've often wondered how common a satellite hop is for trans-continent communication. 50,000 miles round trip from a geosynchronous satellite would beat anything terrestrial.
And on the subject of delays, have you ever used your cell phone to call another cell phone right next to you and noticed the delay between when you say "hello" and the other phone says "hello" back? It's about 1/4 second or so, as far as I can tell. Personally, I'm amazed that, while it's perceptible, it's barely so. Magic. (But that's because I only have a real vague idea of how it all works!)

It would certainly be cool, but you'd need a new kind of NIC just for starters. You'd need to have one that can measure and report the actual signal voltage (to measure path loss) and some sort of time domain reflectometer to measure line length. Even so, you would only be able to characterize the physical path to the next router, and it would include lots of error because there is no standard for propagation velocity on network cabling. Your best bet would be to lobby for a standard that requires a physical address to be appended to the existing MAC address and which can be retrieved using ARP.
"Ask not for whom the bell tolls;
It tolls for thee..."

You're not on too much crack, there is a device which does this called a time-domain reflectometer.

I am reading an artical in my local paper about Pellissippi State Tech. They are offering a course in cluster computing or high performance computing.
By using desktop computers strung together to mimic the power of supercomputers at a fraction of the cost.
Because of high-performance computing's lower cost, more labs, universities and businesses are using this method as part of day-to-day operations, and more jobs are opening up for technicians and software creators.
Where can I get more technical knowledge on this subject? Books ect. I have never heard of this. But it sounds very exciting, something I could tinker with at home.

Hey Steve, You must be in the Knoxville area also. I live here and once took a C++ class at Pellissippi. Sounds like the cluster computing course would be an interesting class but I didn't see it in their online fall schedule. Where did you hear about it?

I've almost completed a VB.Net NNTP class and was wondering if anyone would be interested in me writing an article around it? It will probably take awhile but i'm just wondering if there is any interest... As a follow up article I might write ASP.Net site that uses the class. It implements RFC977 only and not the extensions in RFC2980.

I wrote this fast prime number generator/prime checker, spending hours to refine it and get it in its final form. However, I then found out this technique was well known. 
But there's no article on CP which deals with it per se, and I also think it could be a nice way to teach people about code optimization.
Which section should I submit the article in?
Vikram.
