I don't use photoshop, nor can I offer anything other than my perception but I haven't noticed performance being reduced in any way.

Yes that's what I do too and my external drives are also encrypted with it and use the same password. So one password on start-up mounts those as well and always to the same drive letter. Having all memory sticks encrypted makes for wo

Yes and it does the job. If it's unmaintainable as alleged then that's a refactoring job which is a lot easier imo than starting from scratch. Joe from HR has given him his UI and undeniably laid out everything the code needs to d

The assistance they provided got better as the years went by up to about the time of vb2008. Even then the assistance was such that migration of existing vb6 code was recommended by microsoft as the option of last resort. By the release of

A lot of the people have moved on from vb and also as vb6 applications have continued to work in every release of windows there is less panic about having to upgrade. However, I have heard that windows 10 is not proving quite as trouble-fre

It was a path forward that required the people to leave their intellectual property behind. Not sure if path forward is the correct term for that.

Not sure I understand your second example. The upgrade code to VB7 could just have inserted a ByRef for every parameter lacking both a Byval and a Byref?

Well if Joe in HR can throw it together in a weekend, surely a 'proper' programmer like you could replace it in one?

It's such a pity that microsoft did not provide a path forward for the applications written in vb6. Further, at a time when they are open-sourcing so much they still keep vb6 closed source so that no-one else can either. It's almo

I hadn't even noticed that until i went back to look after reading your comment. I actually don't mind it for some reason. Now there are other things that annoy me a lot like those upper or lower borders that follow you as you sc

OK thanks, I sort of thought that it might be something like that but wondered if I was missing some other angle.

Showing Ireland as being dependent on roots and tubers in pre-colonial times is just plain wrong. It was the colonisers who brought the potato to Ireland. This makes me suspect that the data is being made to fit the theory here and that the

Are you saying that programming in basic is easy or just that people do trivial things with it?

Kante is an absolutely terrific player and in Morgan and Huth they have a classic centre half pairing that reminds me of Pallister and Bruce. But the player I'm most delighted for is Kasper "you'll never be as good as your da

The ECB sets interest rates to suit Germany because it is the economic monster in the EU. So if Germany needs low interest rates to stimulate the economy, the eurozone gets them even countries whose economies are in danger of overheating.

I don't think that is an accurate thing to say. There seems to be a widespread misunderstanding of the word bailout which leads people to believe that what was given was a gift rather than a loan with a lot of strings. And a lot of the

So earth and mars are circling the sun in the same direction, anticlockwise. Earth has a shorter orbit and is also going nearly 25% faster. If earth's at 12 o'clock, where is mars and what direction (N,S,E,W etc) do we aim a rocke
