Newbie Question

122 New Member
I have a custom user control that i am trying to understand and it has numbers before the line items. So here it comes the real newbie question What the heck are the numbers for??

205: For lngCount = 0 To lstIncluded.Ite ms.Count - 1
206: If lstIncluded.Get Selected(lngCou nt) Then
207: strMembers = strMembers & VB6.GetItemData (lstIncluded, lngCount) & ","
End If
209: Next

211: If Len(strMembers) > 0 Then
212: strMembers = VB.Left(strMemb ers, Len(strMembers) - 1)
213: ElseIf lstIncluded.Ite ms.Count > 0 Then
214: For lngCount = 0 To lstIncluded.Ite ms.Count - 1
215: strMembers = strMembers & VB6.GetItemData (lstIncluded, lngCount) & ","
216: Next
217: strMembers = VB.Left(strMemb ers, Len(strMembers) - 1)

They are what line of the code they are in. It helps you find a section ofa code. Well at least that what they are in most programing languages i know.

Hope this helps

? Ok now I am curious how could VB or VB.Net affect it? I believe it is a vb custom control that I am attempting to port over to VB.Net although it isn't going easily...lol

Earlier versions of BASIC required a line number on every line. These days I believe you can still put them in if you feel like it, but they are not required. It's generally easier to just put a label in appropriate places so you can refer to them.

In this case, my guess is you could remove the line numbers without any serious problems. It just depends on whether they are referenced in any Goto/SoSub statements. (I forget what other statements can reference them.)

Of course the usual cautions apply - make sure you keep a backup copy in case it doesn't work.

Hm... actually, that's interesting. In this case, I don't think they are line numbers. They have colons on them, so I guess they're actually labels. Perhaps there's no difference any more.

I think what Mague may have been hinting is that possibly VB and VB.Net handle line numbers differently.

Hi, I've gone through the list of "language differences" between 2.3 / 2.4 & 2.5 of CPython. I've spend around 2 weeks now, learning v2.5 of CPython, and I consider myself still very very newbie. So, unable to take a call as to how-important or desirable the newer language features are -- so whether to write my app for v2.5 of Python, versus, as few others on this list have recommended, i.e. to stick to v2.3 ?? Are the preformance...

Hi all - Sorry to plague you with another newbie question from a lurker. Hopefully, this will be simple. I have a list full of RGB pixel values read from an image. I want to test each RGB band value per pixel, and set it to something else if it meets or falls below a certain threshold - i.e., a Red value of 0 would be changed to 50. I've built my list by using a Python Image Library statement akin to the following:

I am a newbie trying to learn the DOM. Can someone tell me why the first alert statement returns null, and the second returns the value 33px (which was set using the style="top:33px;" in the DIV tag). Why doesn't the first alert statement pick up the style.left attribute from the CSS? <html> <head> <style type="text/css">

Sorry for this newbie question, this is not my realm of expertese. I have searched google, tried several applications that claim they can do this, such as Mapforce, which I found confusing, to Oxygen, to HTML kit, et cetera. I am more confused than ever. here's my quandry. I was sent a file and told that we need to get the data into a more readable form. I've tried using apps to pull it in, but it's not displaying properly.

I am new to Visual Web Developer 2005 Expres. I am using absolute positioning and every time I add a button control to my web form its width extends all the way to the edge of the page. IOW I get a long skinny button that extends to the right side of the browser. This does not appear to happen with other controls. Any idea why it happens to the button? Here is how the button looks in source code:
