Reading items in newsgroups automatically

Raf
Hei all,

I posted this message a few months ago on a few other newsgroups, but untill
now, I did not get
a satisfying answer.
I try to read newsitems from a newsgroup automatically from within VB.Net.

Is this possible to do and if yes, how should I start?

Does anyone have some example code??

Tks,

R

No, just the link. Look for rfc977 at http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/. You might
also find about one million sites when having the searching engine of your
choice look for the RFC - and/or the term NNTP.

Good luck!

I guess there are also some ready managed libraries out there.

BTW, you'll have to use the System.Net.Sock ets.TcpClient class when you want
to write it on your own.

Hello, I took quite elaborate SQL and SQL-admin courses at Oracle, but that was years ago. Have never since used SQL but for some extremely simple straightforward queries on single table db's. So while conjoins, inner and outer joins et cetera ring some bells, I wouldn't know how to tell one from the other anymore, let alone put them to good use. So I decided to check for some good reading material that starts from scratch but quickly...

I am trying to populate a combobox with a lisy of items. I want the 1st item to be "Make a Selection" and the following items will be names from a table in my DB (See code below).

What do people use to read these newsgroups? I have been using my web browser (IE) and pointing it to "http://msdn.microsoft.com/newsgroups/". The experience doing this has been pretty much awful. Is there something better? I do not want to use Outlook -- I do not trust it to refrain from opening executables. If anyone is interested, some of the problems with using IE with the MSDN newsgroups are as follows. The display doesn't...

On an xp machine, the caching works as expected. I have deployed to a win2k server, and an item I add to the cache expires almost immediately some times and in under a minute in other times. The aspnet_wp process is not restarting during this time, and there are no other requests, so nothing should be clearing this out. I have added a CacheItemRemovedCallback which writes debug info out to a DefaultTraceListener, but no output shows up on...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...

Let's talk about the concept of autonomous AI software engineers and no-code agents. These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention. Imagine an AI that can take a project description, break it down, write the code, debug it, and then launch it, all on its own.... Now, this would greatly impact the work of software developers.
