• Visual Studio Express Editions Command prompt from IDE?

  I am VBE newbie.  The help says I get to a command prompt form IDE via view\other windows\command window.  "Other windows" gives me no "command window" choice.  I am trying to compile/run the "hello world" example program from command prompt.  I can get to a command prompt by using XP's start/run/cmd and cd'ing down to my project folder, but surely there is a easier way from from IDE.  Yes, I know F5 compiles and runs from IDE.  But I want to do it the old-fashioned way. hi, and i really appreciated the serious ppl when i see your posting, all wh ...Show All

• Visual FoxPro Cursor help

  Hi    I am new to foxpro and have a question reguarding cursors. I am using VFP 9.0. I am working with a local VFP data base.

I also understand if it uses the hard drive for temporary files that they will be deleted when the cursor is closed. I have tried this in the command windows and my table does not get updated when the tableupdate() function is called even though it returns .t. Here is the code I used: OPEN DAT ...Show All

• Visual C# How well does C# compare with C++?

  Hello, I have a few questions about C# I was hoping someone might be able to answer for me. I am new to the world of programming, and I don't know if I should begin learning C# or C++. From a employment standpoint, C# seems to be a very good choice of language to learn. Where I work now, data driven web sites are becoming more in demand, as is work with SQL/databases. After I learned about C#, it seemed like the ideal language to learn since it seems to primarily deal with the development of web sites and window applications. On the other hand, from a hobby standpoint, I've always been more interested in developing backwards compatible Windo ...Show All
