In VB6 there is Auto Increment check box in Project Properties, which allow you have a new version every time you compile the project. Is there any easy way to have this feature in VB 2005? Some of my blocks of code check and compare versions of EXE and DLLs located on the local workstation and the server. So it's very important for me to have an incremented number in case the project was rebuilt. It can be done manually, of course, but I...

Is it true that if I split my access database in backend and frontend and I implement custom auto increment for the ID fields, that my database is ready to be used in a multi-user environment? I found a zillion messages about auto increment and read some of them but it's confusing. Can someone point me to a simple custom auto increment example that I can download? Thank you, john

Hello Everyone I would be grateful if someone could help me with the automatic increment of a field on my subform called ‘Test_SrNo’. I am Using Microsoft Office 2000. The auto entry of the incremented number would help to reduce errors and make data entry simpler. The next record in the Test_SrNo field should not have any entry in it until the text insertion point enters the Test_SrNo field. Example: If the last test serial number...

Using Visual C# 2008 Express and SQL Server 2008 Express, I would like to insert new records into database "AdventureWorks", table "Person.Contact". To my surprise, this table's int-value identity column "ContactID" does not appear to be auto-increment. I don't know how to confirm for sure that this is so. (I have installed SQL Server Management Studio, if that helps.) How can I confirm this, and how can I make ContactID auto-increment? ...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...
