    - Gzip Compression Creates Larger-than-original When Compressing some types of files Hello All, I am using the example code below to Compress/Decompress Files but it seems that when I try to compress image files (.JPG) and some other file types (.PDF) the output Compressed file is larger than the original input file....

    - Display Problem I coded a car race program and everything functions properly, except for the display. The program is supposed to display the number of correct and incorrect choices made by the player depending on his selection, but my program isn't displaying either one. Instead, it is displaying the number of times the program is run. Here is the piece I think is not functioning correctly: Beginning... Dim sChoice As String Dim sResult As String Static iCorrectNum As Integer Static iIncorrectNum As Integer sChoice = lbxResults.SelectedIndex.ToString (From a list box with selections) ... (Area where I think the problem is)... If sChoice <> "No Guess" Then If sResult = sChoice Then iCorrectNum = iCorrectNum + 1 Else iIncorrectNum = iIncorrectNum + 1 End If lblCorrectDisplay.Text = Convert.ToString(iCorrectNum) lblIncorrectDisplay.Text = Convert.ToString(iIncorrectNum) End If Any help is appreciated.

    - VB Language Hey, vbscript can be used in ASP.NET, which is the Visual Web Developer product. However, there isn't any intellisense support or anything like that, but it does have vbscript files listed as a supported type, I believe... But that's probably not what you are looking for anyway. You should check out and see if there any third-party tools that do vbscripting, if that's solely what you want to do. Brian Tag: Visual Basic Express Edition Collision Visual Studio Express Editions

    - Converting VBA to VB The only other help i can give you right now is to try the upgrade visual basic 6 code in the tools menu in VB express. That may help you get your code converted. I can help with other aspects but messaging is not something i have any experience with. You might start another thread asking specifically about messaging and maybe post some code. Be really specific on what you want. I hope this helps in some way. Tag: Visual Basic Express Edition Collision Visual Studio Express Editions

    - Adding Favourites Cheyenne, It won't be today because I have a full itenerary. This is a textfile with fields, some fixed and some user supplied. The developer's job is to figure out what all of the fields are and to respond appropriately. There aren't any large mysteries here. There is a hextime... I'm wondering if that is not a "file time" datatype. Then there is the ID.. That might be a class id from the registry. I have no idea what the Props are. The other thing to do is to look at other Favorites files and see what can be learned across the files. Then you can create new ones and study those.

    - Copy a Form? Save as will create a copy of the file but the the copy will be the one refered to in you project. However if you want both the copy and the original form in the project then you will have to add the original filename to the project. If you do this you will have a conflict with the underlying name of the form as both are defining the same class name within the files, so you would have to change the name on one of the forms, to resolve the conflict and allow both forms to be in the same project.

    - 'Stringbuilder' issue or question - not sure which? The reason you get those characters at the beginning of your file is that the default encoding used when calling WriteAllText is UTF8. If you pass Encoding.Default as the fourth paramter to WriteAllText, the characters will not be there and you won't have to go to the trouble of stripping them off.

    - unable to find .netframework 2.0.50727 on windows update G'day, great to see life in this problem. As you will have seen I also am getting specific instructions that the .net framework 2.0.50727 is required. May I say at the onset that I have a minus zero knowledge of software so please bear with me if I seem difficult. I really do appreciate the goodness of heart with which advice is shared. So please take it as a given that I certainly need all the help I can Get. I am trying to focus on the problem which seems clear to me is finding the correct version. Not trying whatever version one can find. The response does however throw open some doors as how the computer behaves. So: 1: Unlike the other enquirer i do not have another version yet that i have tried to write over the top off my existing version. 2: I thought my problem was trying to find the driver asked for by my program not attempt some sort of try to make do option which may well bring over time an unknown wealth off gremlins to haunt me forever.. 2: I would have thought that it should have accepted newer versions as a matter of course 3: I recognise I come from a knowldge base of minus zero. I do not know what the results may be in deleting a .net framework version. For all I know the computer will not even allow access or start so what is the risk in removal I suspect It is there for some reason other than to drive one crazy 4: i t was wonderful to see the links, thank you for that. But as one who does not know enough to do other than feed the computer what it asks for I seem to come back to the original dilema of wanting to know where to find v2.0.50727. Please dont give up on me, have a good day. Tag: Visual Basic Express Edition Collision Visual Studio Express Editions

    - Populate combo box based on choice of another combo box Ah HA! I think I figured this out. What I did was assign the SP as the data source, and the relevant fields in the Data Binding Mode area of the Combo Tasks window. This automatically set up my table adapter and binding source. Then I just copied the statement that was generated when I assigned the values to the 1st combo box and changed it as necessary. I eventually finagled the code based upon what VBE 2k5 gave me as an option to get it to at least come up. Now I just need to play w/it a little to make sure that it's working like I hope it's working.

I know there is XNA... but that is for C# and I use the Visual Basic Express Edtion. So I basicly want to know who to get started with this. Some methodes I know are boundery box checking and sphere checking, colour based checking and pixel based checking and probably more... But I don't really know how I can link a boundery box or other to the VB Express Edition.

So in general I need to know some basic stuff and
