• Visual Basic quicksort not that quick

  hi, i am trying to sort a long list of strings (100,000+) in order to identify unique values in the list. So, i've basically tried Array.Sort, which is nice (but i'm not sure which sorting algorithm it uses) but seems to be rather slow, so i tried implementing my own Quicksort (from the msdn library) but that also seems to take 10mins+ (i gave up at this point) for a list of 131,000 strings. I've tried sorting the list in Textpad - which takes seconds, and even doing the same in excel (granted for half the list) takes seconds, so i'm wondering: a) what algorithm is textpad or excel using b) surely there's a better way than the quicksort alth ...Show All

• Visual FoxPro Can't write to new tables.

  Hey, I was given the task of updating a project in .NET and foxpro. I opened up the foxpro database and added a couple tables. I can write to them from the command line, but I can't insert or update records through the oledb. The users have write access, and can write to any of the old tables, but not the new ones. I am doing this in VFP 6.0. I don't know what the version to make the originals was. What am I missing To be able to insert data naturally you need write access. Why don't you show your .Net code. Maybe when saying .Net you're talking about asp.net and didn't give aspnet account write ac ...Show All
