Couple of questions

bjs
I hope I've got the right group here and apologies if I haven't. I'm a
hobby programmer and have just upgraded to Visual Basic.net and have a
couple of questions if anybody can help.

In VB 6 you could print using a print command that included Print, Line,
CurrentX, CurrentY etc etc. I am SURE there will be a way in VB.net yet can
find no trace - can somebody help?

Secondly, I know this is old tech but using DAO I could write programs that
could create DB's on the fly including tables, queries etc etc. I can
include DAO as a reference in VB.net and I can see commands such as
..OpenRecordset () but can find no reference to Workspaces(), which is needed
to open the DB first. Can anybody assist here please?

Thanks

Hey people, I read a good thread on here regarding the reason why we use function prototypes, and it answered most of my questions, but I wanted to double check on a couple of things, as I am writing something up on functions, and I don't like writing about things I am not sure about.

Howdy. I'm a bit new to C# and got a couple of quick questions that perhaps someone can help me answer. First, is there a property that you set on a TextBox control that will force the control to accept only numerical data (i.e. - only numbers 0 to 9, a decimal and the negative sign)? So far, I've had to do the validation manually on either a key down or OnValidate event. Secondly, is there any way to preview a key stroke for a given...

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,...
