• ProgrammerJ VS 2005 RTM Weird Editor Behavior

  I'm using the VB Editor in VS 2005 RTM version and every so often it starts misbehaving and I have to close all editor windows to get working properly again. What happens is that as soon as I type a single letter at the beginning of a line it immediately appends open and close parens. So for example if I want to type an If statement, as soon as I type 'i' it changes it to i(). If I backspace to delete the parens it puts them back in. ...Show All

• bakuls Class Reflection Problem

  I am trying to make my application save its data files as XML. The problem is this: Part of the data to be saved is a collection. Collections, apparently, can not be reflected in the System.Xml.Serialization.XmlSerializer.Serialize() method. So I tried List(Of...), and that doesn't give me the index functionality that I need.

• ariu Serial Port Hex CRC Calculation, help please.

  Hi there, My program creates this output: 0xA0+0xAF+0x01+0xAA+0x6F+0x01 which then I need to add the checksum to the end. E.g. "0xC5+0x5F+0x0C+0x00+0x00=0x130 which is therefore CRC=0x30" << from my manual (but doesn't help me). So: A0+AF+01+AA+6F+01 = 2A6 or 618 as Integer. But I need the answer as a Byte. But byte's only go to 255! No where near 618! So help please in converting this 618 into a CRC Byte, pleas ...Show All
