Two programming questions--

hey guys,

THANKS a ton for all the advice. And thanks for your kind warning, ArchAngel -- I'm a very humble beginner and am trying to get a sense of where things are going so don't worry about offending me :D . I actually did start out with VB (since it's easier) to get my feet wet a bit, before going for either C++ or Java...
But now I can skip C++ and go for C#...and Java's kinda weird anyway so maybe i'll hold off on that indefinitely...but I think I'd better finish my VB6 book first as I am a newbie at this stuff...I'm about halfway thru it anyway, so i'll probably finish it and then hopefully i'll still be green enough to smoothly move to VB.net...

thanks again!

peace, love, and arbitrage,
-b

The problem with C++ is not the
language itself but Microsoft's framework.
Visual C++ is mess.

You will almost for certain get your
job done faster with any other
language/compiler. If you have to
use C++, use Borland's C++ Builder.

Thanks for the tip, Lewis...

On your recommendation I have been using their C# builder while I learn C#...one annoying thing is how the program throws windows around, and how it ignores my saving changes to the default layout...do you have any advice on this? I dunno if it's also a problem with C++ builder...but it's a bit annoying with 2 monitors to have this program going wherever the hell it wants and ignoring my placements...

Thanks in advance,

I have no experience with C# builder.

However, your problem sounds like a conflict between
your multi-mon management software (e.g. nVidia nview)
and C# builder.
 
word...usually the matrox powerdesk controls stuff pretty well but the borland software is a bit whack in a few respects...

Probably the other way around. Most apps are poorly written
regarding multi-mon window placement you need a separate
management tool like powerdesk to place the windows.
