Playing with VB and DB
« on: February 24, 2006, 02:22:22 AM »
Alright I've got VB Express(free and official...Wow and this is by MicroSoft) up and running and it has happily converted DB into 2005 form... How the heck do you deal with this madness each single time :wacko: DB looks like a diced ham after this wonderful "upgrade" that has gone on :blink:

Anyhow I'll see what I can do with it anyways. I'll be gone for awhile so it'll be a good bit unfortunatly :(

Now you know why I'm porting to C++.  The code is extremely untidy.

Not just the untidyness (considering its been worked on by several people and it's function I can understand that). A bunch of the declared values are now reserved, so VB changed them which in the process messed the program up.

DNA is the main one giving VB headaches :wacko:

I'm not sure what you're saying the problem is.

A bunch of the declareds chosen are now reserved in this newest version of VB. Just well be a pain going back through them thats all.
