    Populating the Notification Area

    How does Windows (XP Pro SP2) display the information that appears in the Notification Area? Is it in a folder, a Registry key? Where??

    Installed fresh copy of W2K over previous instal

    Hi, I made the HUGE mistake of lending my 100GB hard drive to a friend. He had trouble booting from it, and he went ahead and "helped" me out by installing a fresh copy of W2K over my installation. Now I have lost everything -- all the programs I paid for, all my data, everything! Is there ANY...

    Keystrokes Stored in Memory

    Hi, I'm not an assembly language programmer at all, but this question (I think) relates to it. I had just created a document in MS-WORD 2002 (quite a long document, too) and a friend of mine was reading it. He closed MS-WORD without saving so I lost everything I had written. My question is...

    Interactive Table, Storing Data

    Hi everyone, I'm a maintenance technician and I have to keep track of hundreds of parts for the machines I work on. I have 4 cabinets that can hold around 125 plastic bins in which the parts are stored. I created a table in HTML using overLib (available at www.bosrup.com/web/overlib/) so that...

    From Many Computers To One Host

    Hi, Thanks for the responses. You are all correct, of course: if it's working now, then why mess with it? There are a few problems that made me think of centralized control of the computers: 1. The machine operators are minimum-wage employees and have zero computer training and knowledge. Most...

    From Many Computers To One Host

    Hi, I'm a Maintenance Technician working in a mail presorting facility. They have 12 sorting machines that have an average of 3 computers each, two of them having 7 computers. I keep looking at all those computers and wonder if it has been a waste of the company's money. Here's how a sorting...

    QuickBasic for Windows

    VERY interesting information, dilettante, thank you. Can HTAs interface with hardware? For instance, can I access hard drives, printers, etc. with it? Can I create files (text files, really) with it? It does sound very interesting and I will look into anway. I am also concerned about exposing...

    QuickBasic for Windows

    What I have been asked to write in the past (and I don't see that really changing in the future) are things like help files, employee warning generator programs, programs that read other files and compile (or rather, collate) all the information and write the result to another file, etc. No...

    QuickBasic for Windows

    I have been writing programs using QuickBasic at work for the past 2 or 3 years and was recently informed that they are going to do away with their DOS-based computers and replacing them with NT systems. 1) Will my QB programs work in the NT system? 2) Can I create QB programs to run on the NT...

    QBasic, PEEK and POKE

    Thank you very much for your input. I shall have to get into interrupts, inp and out in that case. I'm writing a program in QBasic that is a Help system but that needs to have an editor for creating and editing help files (for the supervisor). Being self-taught (and not very good), I'm finding...

    QBasic, PEEK and POKE

    I'm interested in finding out how to use PEEK and POKE. I have searched books and the Internet but cannot find anything but cursory mention of them. Is there somewhere I can find a thorough examination of their use? Thanks
