Has anyone sucessfully implemented this viwer in VB.net and managed to get the viewing portal parmaters from the activeX via the API.When I try and create an instance of the Renderer it bombs out(just does not execute the rest of the code in the form. I know it will be in the passing and settings of parmaters as i have had to turn off "Option Strict" to use the API.

If you have the bandwidth try downloading the Microsoft Express products. They are full development systesm that do not lack power given the price (free)I use them at home to test code that I will use the next day at work.

Sony's Playstation Portable (PSP) may become the video equivalent of the Apple iPod and that PodCasting may have a new challenge: PSP-video-casting.Some possible uses are adding a WiFi card for wireless internet access, GPS for portable mapping system, electronic superbook.Or adding a camera to make it into a no-tape camcorderDo you think this will happen ?

I think videos are exculed, they very rapidly would put you over your site limits (especially bandwidth) There is a system somewhere that hosts such material and you can link to it. It was mentioned in the forums on http://www.aardvark.co.nz/ a week or two ago Regards

Most low cost modems are known as winmodems. These rely on Win32 to do all the smarts for the modem, the hardware is rather primitive. Most "full modems" are usable. Best to try various systems with a Live Linux Disk (i.e Knoppix on CD" and see what works and what does not

If you are interested have a llok at the beginning videos for LearningVisualStudio.net. They are excellent in showing how to approach this language.

Have a look also at he "Stumble" add in. If you get bored with finding "interesting" sites this works well

Camtasis is available (an earlier edition) on some magazine cover disks. It does seem easier to use than some other packages I have used.

With all the pre-built and pre-installed web CMS given by Fantastico I generally do not bother to do any page development.

Is there a lot of difference between confessing to a priest and confessing to an analyst. At least one confession is privaleged

Problem is separating "bundled" from "free" I bet the course fees would be some $100 less if they were not giving away "free' academic XP

The Millenium Bug was marvelous, gave me a tour of the country looking for it Notice how "experts" and "consultants" move from one item of scare to another. With Y2K it was "all care, no responsibility" and they could not lose.

For those of us "oldies" on the forum , perhps the best way to guess at what the world will be like in twenty years would be to look at the predictions made 20 years ago, and see how many came true and how many fizzled.I will see if I can get a paper from that time, and see what predictions were made in 1985.As I remember aside from major changes in technology (Internet, PC's, Biotechnology, Genetic) things were not that much different. And many of the fears at the time did not come to pass.Regards

Or a better question, how are you learning XML today ?

Here in NZ, and in Australia, today we are celebrating ANZAC day. This is the day when we remember not a great victory but a crushing defeat , incurred at a foolish invasion of Turkey by Australian and New Zealand Troops (under the orders of an inept British Command)A third of the troops from the Antipodeas were lost, for no benefit or gain. A equal or greater number of Turkish troops also lost their lives defending their homeland.It is a day we have a holiday to remember the fallen, and the stupidity of war.I wonder is this unique to New Zealand and Australia or do other nations also "celebrate defeat" with a national holiday ?
