All I really want to do is finish off this hex editor I started when I was running windows98, but I get this error when I try to add my hexEditCtl (obviously the most important aspect of the program...)I probably needn't state the exact error as I've found it comes up on any Win2k system I've used, but if anyone ran into this before and figured it out, your advice would be much appreciated...BTW - MSDN is sooooooo .Net oriented these days that I've had one hellofa time trying to find support for their 6.0 version (which doesn't require all those stupid components installed...)

I only started using VB.NET and C#.NET because of the new framework and far far more flexible and improved OOP based design with support for collections, custom events/delegates etc.. now I can see the language reaching a certain maturity. If you need help with .NET UserControls - I'm right here I never touched the usercontrol stuff as long as it was VB6 - but with .NET I'm creating usercontrols away to glory CheersP.S. You might want to look at the CodeProject Archives & DevX.Com Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
polarysekt 0 Report post Posted February 12, 2005 yeah, you're probably right... i have a copy of .Net 2003 (well like 5cds) sitting right here on top of the cpu, and perhaps i should give up on the oldschool...Good ol $80 course at the community college to not only besides, for my nearly nondependant apps, i'm trying to move into exclusive c++ (not managed) through which i would require msvcxx.dll (or whatever it's called) and that would be about it... (makes for good autorun apps)... and also... I really want to design for dual platform (linux & win32)...well it's late here... buzz is wearing down and now i'm tired.......
