Hmm...
Programming in Microsoft Windows under Microsoft Visual Studio using Microsoft Visual C++ and the Microsoft Foundation Classes.
As far as MS is concerned, the above could read...
Microsoft Microsoft Microsoft Microsoft Microsoft Microsoft Microsoft Microsoft Microsoft Microsoft Microsoft
...and they'd be just as happy.

Hello,
I leave all my books at home. I just started with my graduation project and I bought all my books before. I might move them to the office when I need them there. I won't leave my books there since I don't have any private space there.
Anybody else working in a so called flex-office?

Hello to everybody,
I'm trying to call a function in a win32 dll; the documentation, written in C++, for the dll reports the calling convention as:
SHORT Start (UCHAR ucNumCom, ULONG usSpeed)
In a module, I wrote the following line:
Declare Function Start Lib "abc.dll" (ByVal ucNumCom As Char, ByVal usSpeed As UInt64) As Short
Then I wrote the following code (in the click event of a button)
Start(CStr(serialPort).Chars(0), speed)
(where serialPort is a string variable and speed is a UInt64 one).
The dll function executes and returns me an error code of InvalidParameter; don't get me wrong: i don't fall in any Try...Catch branch.
Is there anybody out there who can help me?
Thanx in advance
Marco Turrini

Techy books that don't come with a PDF version should be sent back to the publisher with a big note saying "Gutenberg died in 1468, get with the times!"
eVersions of books are great if for no other reason than searching.

and they stay there.
I learnt my lesson long ago, that books taken into work usually disappear. I've lost count of the number of books that I've had to buy again because they went walk-about.
I find books rarely have much use at work. Books are great for learning and for knowledge gathering, which I prefer to do at home.
If I need to reference something for my work, then Google usually gives me the answer.

I ran into that problem several years ago. One of my books disappeared that I used fairly often. I went wandering around, asking about it, with no results. Finally, I was idly talking to someone, and it turned out they had it.
"I borrowed it one day, and you weren't around."
"You couldn't leave a damn note?"
She wouldn't talk to me after that.
For a long time after that I kept the shelf units over my desk locked.

I think you need to add that option too.
I work from home and thus, they are always at home/work.

This got me thinking. Since I like to drink at home, and I'm not allowed to drink at work, I guess I'll never be working from home.

Quickest way to fall asleep. At the moment I have 3/4 tech books beside my bed and one novel. If I have trouble sleeping (which happens a lot) I open one of the tech books and read until I get so damn bored/tired that I can fall asleep.

I run my own home based business and there is no option for that  All of my books are both at home and in my office.

I rarely buy programming books now. Google usually can answer the questions that I used to use books for.
I do however have a large collection of books on software development process and management.
