For expample.

Code: Select all

Hi% = ASC(H)

That would put the ASCII (hence the ASC(II)) code of H into Hi%.

I guess that wasn't your day. You forgot the quotes AND spelled example wrong!

Or just use the program in my sig
Microsoft makes $100+ a pop for that program

Can it use only ONE KEY (ex. accepts SPACE but not G) or can I use any key? (ex. accepts q,w,e,r,t,y,u,i....)

Nathan1993: You forgot your quotes around your H :P Try this out, captainlazy WHILE KEY$ <> CHR$(27) 'Makes the program stop if ESC is pressed. WHILE KEY$ = "" Key$ = INKEY$ WEND IF Key$ = "(your letter IN QUOTES)" THEN (insert your functions here) ' and more keywords IF KEY$ <> ...

Prepare to be suprised... It's not there. Duh-(faster)duh-duh-(slightley slower)duh-(faster)duh-duh-duh-duh-duh-duh-duh I wish my computer had a microphone! I'd record it, give you a link, and THEN you'd know what I'm talking about! EDIT: It starts with this tidbit of code: thisismysoundtidbit$ = &q...

I could probably find it, but I'm too lazy...

What is the string needed for the PLAY command to play the death sound?(the one you always hear at the end of old video games)

The only time I ever get that error is when I either mistype a SUB name (ex CNETER instead of CENTER) or when I insert my DECLARE SUB ------- and forget to actually make the SUBs

Plus, QB7.1 added a ton of useless 'INTEREST' functions. But, in my opinion, KIS. QB7.1 is the way to go. (waiting to be flamed)

Nostradamus said so.

Well, he also said...
3755 - world destroyed by asteroids according to Nostradamus.
3797 - world consumed by an expanding Sun according to Nostradamus.

Which is it???

AntiVir says that the file "C:\Jokerz\canl.com" (or something like that) includes that virus.

Warning! If you have downloaded 'Jokerz TUI' from Pete's QB Site, you have a virus on your computer. It is called vgen/26436.0 - If you have downloaded it, remove it ASAP. Moderators, delete this from Coranto ASAP.

Oh, about the only thing I'll give Dell is that they distribute Red Hat Linux now. At least it's a start.

Windows dominating the OS market is sort of like Intel dominating the processor market. AMD and Linux are both quality products, but corporations got Windows and Intel (stoopid Dell...). In my opinion, AMD and Linux are both better. I guess you can say that I'm a minority.

I need a birthday present for a friend. He's a big fan of Texas Chainsaw Massacre. So, I want a screen saver that has Leatherface walking across the screen, and then it generates a random person (must be different each time), and then Leatherface saws them in half. Make it 'pixelated', using 4 pixel...

And, the fact that not everyone has access to a DVD-Burner, let alone a DVD-ROM drive.

The crypted message is soooo... (repeats the O for 3 hours) ooo long that the code box got moved over. But, anyway, heres how you need to decrypt it. (you need to scroll over to see the code box) (might need tuning...) (after puting quotes around it in the file) OPEN "yourfile.fil" FOR INP...

As always when someone post random stuff asking for it to be decoded: Post source. A good encryption is safe even when the source is available.. I was seeing if someone could get it without the source... Micheal is on the right track. Basic outline: OPEN "yourfile.fil" FOR INPUT ACCESS RE...

Who says that I get a shotgun and blow Yo_Momma's brains out?

Or, who votes that I put Backdoor.Netdevil

A show of hands, now

For DOS emulation, XP is shit. 2000 is no exception either. If you want to have good DOS emulation while running Windows, stick to 98SE/ME.

Anything to get an inferior OS that will keep money in Gate's pocket.
