You can always right-click on download and do Download with DAP. But download.com, as you mentioned, opens up a new window from where the download happens. You basically have to go to the preferences (options/configurations) and make sure it has been integrated into IE or whichever browser you...

Ahhh...I remember doing this a few years ago--in 1999 when I had interest in such things. I used a program called Fontographer, which I got off a software CD, and then I did scan my own pictures and somehow imported it into the program. The program then set up points based on the bitmap so that...

It was a really stupid problem. Turns out that I had directly shut down the computer too many times (from the button) and thus it somehow corrupted my profile. So I had to take it to the school and they just repaired it and told me not to do it again. Haha. All saved and no need to back anything...

Is BSNL DataOne available in Mumbai. And if it isn't, would MTNL Triband be an improvement on dial-up at least? Thanks.

Is MTNL good though? I heard that it gives a really slow speed, in reality. Although it claims to be 256 kbps....?

Thanks for the tips. I figured there was a way to connect the laptop hard disk to my PC by use of a laptop hard disk adapter but haven't done so yet. Instead I have just given my computer to my school tech department who will try and repair the installation of windows, else let me back up my...

Well you have two approaches (apart from the template approach)--you can learn an internet programming language such as HTML and PHP or you could just use a WYSIWYG editor such as Frontpage or Dreamweaver. I followed the first approach. :) Firstly--what is the site for? Just a random personal...

I am not sure if I have made this clear but I cannot start Windows. Effectively, I have no operating system. I don't think I would be able to install a USB optical drive under those situations. That's why I was unsure when I mentioned it...can I?

Here's the deal. My laptop was running slowly today so I restarted it. It started fine the first time but I could not login. The computer basically froze on the login-screen (XP Pro Networked). So I restarted again and this time I logged in fine. However, this time the computer froze in the...

Yeah my book doesn't have all the syntax and code for the coding method, but I am picking it up as I go. I guess the Data Control didn't work because it didn't use Jet 4??

Thanks for the reply. Yeah I figured out that the ADO control works by looking through the SAMS book...well actually reading it (the last time I was just looking for a quick fix). Now it all works perfectly fine, although I still have to work on the syntax a bit. Thanks again.

Here is the problem. I am making a program (a game actually) where I want to use a Microsoft Access 2000 database (using MS Access XP) to hold the data for the program, which I am coding in Visual Basic 6. I have never used third-party databases in VB programming before this and thus still have...

I figured I don't really need it because I just needed it to open the files. There was no design logic problem--there was just the problem of transferring the username from a computer-process to a user-generated event.

Okay basically I am making a sort of organizer program for my IB Computer Science class. Since the user requires to login with the username and password, and the username is used to access all of the user's files, it is a variable that is required by more or less all the procedures and...

I know that the problem can be solved using a global variable but I was wondering if there was any way to program it without 'wasting' space. That is, programming it efficiently yet confusingly. A global variable would solve all problems because then variables would not have to be passed.

I'm using VB6 to make this program and I have this minor problem that is very difficult to search for on the net (because the solution is so simple--I just don't know it or it is eluding me). Basically I have a public procedure which contains a parameter. Let's just call it: Public Sub...

Okay... I was almost getting hopeful then. I guess I'll just spend the last few months in India with dialup and then real broadband calls me!

Nope I simply could not find a driver for my modem because the vendor website said, "driver support for this modem has been discontinued". Besides, I simply couldn't find linux drivers for that company. Anyhow. I guess if I get too desperate I'll just get cable or soemthing.

Well I must say my first experience with linux wasn't too good because I ended up damaging the boot file and had to reinstall everything from scratch. Luckily I was able to back up all my files (that too through SuSE). Anyhow, I'm holding on to all the Digit DVD's and when I finish school I'm...

It ain't really broadband if it ain't broadband. Whatever. I don't have broadband yet (still dial-up) but I'm looking for comments on MTNL's Tri-Band and BSNL's new schemes.
