    Looking for VBA reference material

    Unfortunatly the Excel help files weren't installed on the machines. I actually ended up finding out that you can indeed use Structures in VBA, thanks to dailydoseofexcel.com (very good resource). It doesn't help that I'm not in an actual programming position at my company and had to use up the...

    Looking for VBA reference material

    I've searched through the MSDN to the best of my ability, however I have not been able to find any articles pertaining to the actual language semantics. Mostly what I need to know is how similar to VB.NET is VBA? Do I have access to the same looping and condition structures? What about data...

    Looking for VBA reference material

    Hello. I'm working on a project for work, in which I need to sort some information in Excel. I've decided that VBA would be the best way to approach this problem, and am having a difficult time finding a full set of language specifications. If anyone has a good link to an article showing all of...

    PC won't turn on

    Okay. I tried pulling the power from each component one at a time, and each time I pulled the plug, it gave a bit more of a spin. Harddrive, CD and DVD ROMS, then Graphics Card, then fans. Once I unplugged the fans, the PSU's rear fan gave a full spin, then died. Fun.

    PC won't turn on

    Well, the fan made it 1/4 of the way around, so that kind of worked. Unfortunatly, still no power.

    PC won't turn on

    Okay, here's the deal: Last night I went to bed with my computer left on (like every other night). I had had it upgraded relatively recently (a bit after Christmas) with a new motherboard, CPU, Video Card, and PSU. The PSU is an Ultra X-Connect 500W (the other parts are an Asus A8N-E, AMD64...

    onmousemove finding mouse location

    Ah, sorry. I should of specified that originally. I need it in relation to the upper-left of the screen. Everything in the page is going to be moveable by the user, so I need to find out where their mouse is when they mouseover the links to display the appropriate tooltip popup to let them know...

    onmousemove finding mouse location

    I'm working on a site design using a good deal of DHTML and have run into a snag. I'm trying to detect where the user's mouse is, but I can't for the life of me get the correct position. I'm using the mouse detection script from quirksmode, but instead of giving me a position anywhere near the...

    Retrieving lost work

    Great! Thanks for the pointer in the right direction. Hopefully one of these will help, though it's not so much that the file is gone, it's that the data stored in memory is flushed once the program's crashed (and there goes work). Every program that you use to create something needs to have an...

    Retrieving lost work

    After a lovely incident with Photoshop, I've been curious... Is there any way to retrieve data from an unresponsive program in WindowsXP? Example: In the case of Photoshop, the program crashed after a couple hours of work, leaving both myself and my girlfriend frantically trying to stop the...

    Make a custome member reference?

    Welp, I checked out Reflection and that does indeed seem to be what I need to make my dynamic property changing function work. However I've stumbled upon a snag. I've been getting a System.ArgumentException error with "Cannot widen target type to primitive type" as a message. The following is...

    Make a custome member reference?

    Unfortunatly, that's not the problem I'm having. I have the function working, per say. For example: Public Function setMode(ByRef controls As Control.ControlCollection, ByVal mode As String) As Boolean Dim i As Control Dim command As String For Each i In controls...

    Make a custome member reference?

    I'm trying to create a function that will loop through a ControlCollection and apply a user specified 'mode' to it (such as enabled = false, or clearing a textbox, etc). Public Function setMode(ByRef controls As Control.ControlCollection, ByVal mode As String) As Boolean Dim i As...

    Asynchronous JavaScript question.

    A-ha! It works now, thank you very much for your help. :) Changing from innerText to innerHTML makes everything show up perfectly, many thanks indeed! I need to work on making sure to notice stupid little mistakes.

    Asynchronous JavaScript question.

    Okay, with those changes, I now get the alert saying it's made it past the innerHTML section, but I still don't get anything to show up. function ajaxLauncher() { var args = ajaxLauncher.arguments; var httpRequest = (window.ActiveXObject) ? new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP") : new...

    Asynchronous JavaScript question.

    Okay, I did that, and lo and behold, it's giving me what I want to see, but it's only inside of the alert.. I tried changing the innerHTML section to innerHTML = "<p>HI!</p>"; But I still got nothing, still no final alert() popping up. I'll post the HTML file that's calling the java. <html>...

    Asynchronous JavaScript question.

    Ah. Scratch that above post, I figured out what it was, yet another case of me not noticing something. However, my new problem is odd... { alert(httpRequest.readyState); container = document.getElementByID(args[2]); container.innerHTML =...

    Asynchronous JavaScript question.

    Many thanks for the pointing out the obvious flaws. Goes to show how much a second set of eyes can help... However, I seem to have another flaw... I have the alert()s working now, and I keep getting the alert() in the function() { .... } section repeating, over and over again, and then not...

    Asynchronous JavaScript question.

    I'm building a page and plan on using some Asynchronous JavaScript (AJAX without the XML basically). Anywho, the problem is, it just doesn't seem to work at all. I've slowly worked my way through the code and I can't figure out for the life of me why it's just not working. I've tried using...

    IRC-style chat program

    Thanks for the link. I downloaded the code for IRCd and will give it a look over and see how much that will help. :)
