Thanks, Allen, Tony. Now I get it.

How to patch the holes?

The 'Windows Update' feature is quite handy for such things. Go to Start/Windows Update, or in Internet Explorer, go to ...

The common NSAIDs - taken long enough - put you at risk for GI bleeds and ulcers. The reason for that is because these are indiscriminate cyclooxygenase ...

Allen sensei,
You are doing an amazing job. Are there issues? Certainly. That is to be expected, as this is a new course, and you are dealing with students from vastly differing backgrounds. IMHO, you are doing a really incredible job of designing and teaching this course, while at the same time ...

I must agree with Lee. While this may help in alerting you that there is a problem, it will do nothing to prevent the spread of the problem. The part that bothers me most is near the end, "If everybody you know does this then you needn't ever worry about opening mail from friends". Yeah, right.

We ...

I didn't do it! Nobody saw me do it! You can't prove anything! http://www.xpres.net/~gmattson/ubbs/smile.gif

Er, that is, unless it was something good, in which case I will take the credit. http://www.xpres.net/~gmattson/ubbs/wink.gif

But, in this case, I didn't do anything. Did I? That Ernie ...

Hey Allen, I am keeping up with the Lectures, but the class project has become more than a little confusing. We have had several changes mid-stream, as it were. What is the possibility of getting a single document that I could use to catch up on where we should be in the project? I would even be ...

I have noticed that Adobe often has problems with graphics files that are included in a PDF. Most of the time they come out like your code, sort of blurry. Not sure if they are trying to compress pics that are already compressed, but that is what it looks like.

As for the class, I just finished the ...

You mean besides the Hello World program?

I'm up for it. Bring it on!

Arnie

Lectures 1-3 completed. No questions at this time.

Hey Laird, I don't see any 'mscreate' in my Visual C++ Tools folder. Where do you find that? I have a Win98 box, as well as a WinXP box I am toying with, and I don't see it on either one.

As for the 'zoomin' program, I have to agree with Allen sensei. Video drivers are notorious for causing ...

My software was purchased at auction, and so is not the latest version. No problem, I downloaded and installed Service Pack 5, so the software is up to date. However, the version of MSDN that came in the box is from 1998. Will I be okay with that?

Arnie

No problems installing the software or MSDN. However, when I attempt to do the NT symbol setup(on my XP machine and on Brandy's 2000 machine), I get an error message 'Some of the symbol files could not be located in the input directory. Do you want to continue?'. If I say Yes, it attempts to go on ...

Trying to teach someone a concept without giving them some hands-on experience actually putting it into practice is rather useless, IMHO. Techniques arise from the application of a concept to a particular situation. Teaching the concept without the application...well, it doesn't work for me. I need ...

As for homework, yes, absolutely. Programming is learned by doing, just like karate. You can learn ABOUT things by reading, but you learn to DO them by, well, doing them.

I just got all my stuff today, so I am ready. Also, my wife, Brandy, is interested in the class. She is currently a student in ...

My stuff is ordered, and should be here before the weekend. Looking forward to it.
