You sure do seem a bit excited to find out what Snyp was doing with that penguin.

Not sure if it appreciated to recommend other coding sites here, but for game development I think you should have a look at www.gamedev.net.

Hi, I'd be very thankful if someone could at least give me the basic idea on how to create a chat system where people can chat with each other and at the same time get to see each other via their webcams, I always wanted to create such a thing but don't know where to start... can someone help me please?
Oh! btw - is it at all possible to run such a thing completely through a website, you know how those paid webcam sites do it? I'm really a beginner any help would be really appreciated!!

How Can I Update an article i was submited it to CodeProject??
i found that i download the source of the article and what i should do after that??

From the CP FAQ[^]:How do I update my article?
If you used the submission wizard and your article has not yet been moved then you can click on the 'Modify this article' link just under the title of the article. If the article has been moved, or was posted by us directly, then the best thing to do is to take the HTML from your article's page on CodeProject, make your modifications to that, then send it to us, plus any zip files or images, and we'll update it for you. Don't worry about colorizing your code snippets. Our scripts do that all for you.

On a related note, is it possible to edit a message on the forum?
This morning (well, it was AM for me!) I unintentionally hit submit (not looking what I'm doing). I'd have liked to be able to edit that submission, but I'm not sure how, so I posted a correction underneath.

Bizzarely, I was about to delete my posting. I felt so stupid having finally noticed the [modify][delete] links, after GOK how long using CP.
In defence, your honour, I'd like to submit exhibit 'A', being a pair of old, no longer accurate prescription spectacles. I sit under an air vent, which makes my contacts uncomfortable for long periods....
Thanks anyway, though. My advanced age means I'll probably forget in a couple of days...

Hey Everyone!
Read my bio and you'll know why I am asking such a basic and/or stupid question. My "future" employer has a card reader that runs on WinXP. They want someone who, at least, has a basic knowledge of code. In order to find out what they are using to write the application I have to ask the VP of Tech. Now, I can't come off as a total idiot. So how could I best approach this? Any suggestions would be appreciated. Also, the job is in Saudi Arabia. That's a far piece for a southern boy! I only need the basics and have 60 days to study up. I can do that. But I need help on not coming off as a fool and getting my name tossed out of the running. My primary expertise is sales. So, I can talk my way through most things but this. I have hardware and software operating experience but have only dabbled in code.
HELP!!
Thanks
Please spell it out for me. I am starting from scratch.

I'm now reading the remainder of your post with Zig Ziglar's voice going around in my head 
Okay. Let's see... What sort of card reader? To read what sort of cards? Credit Cards? Identity Cards? Punch  Cards?
Regardless, I would guess that the hardware element is most likely written in C (and/or C++) and assembler.
Windows XP is mostly written in C, C++ and assembler.
What exactly is the job? You never mentioned that. Just that coding will play a part (and by the sounds of it a small part) so I can't imaging that they'd throw you in with device driver coding as that is highly specialised.
Do you know what sort of coding/development they'll want you to do?
Anyway - if you have more information and feel it is kind of sensitive then I'm prepared to accept a private email on this one.
... And I'll see you.... At the top -- Zig Ziglar. (You can guess what just arrived in the post this morning!)

A lot of hardware device programming is done in C, or some variant thereof. A lot depends upon what level of programming is going to be required of you. Are you expected to modify the behavior of the card reader, or are you supposed to just interface with the device using a WinXP system? If the latter, C++ or even VB skills may be adequate to deal with the challenge. If the former, you need to sound as if you're an expert in real-time, embedded programming in C-like languages. From your description I'm betting that all you need to know is how to talk to the device and retrieve responses from it. For that purpose any modern language should be acceptable. Ask them what language they prefer, and bone up on it.
I've felt much better since I gave up hope.

You don't say what language your wanting to use is so here's a good book for C#:
"C# Network Programming" by Richard Blum.

Make a search Socket programming from google.com etc

You could, but the information brought up by google can be all over the place - and more-often-than-not is Unix/Linux based rather than Windows based.
As this site is a Microsoft oriented site it is natural that the original poster is looking for microsoft technology oriented answers. The book I suggested is an excellent introduction and reference for Socket programming in Windows using the .NET Framework.
Finally, a good developer should be able to research all avenues available. Google is not the be-all-and-end-all of information lookup. Learning to read a book is infinitely more advantageous than just typing words in to Google and seeing what pops up first.
Also, books can be read off-line, which, especially when doing network programming, is a great benefit. I've done some network programming in the past and it has been fantastic to have a book the guide me when I've messed up the network connection at information is no longer flowing.

Well said, that man. Bring back books!
I've got shelves full of them, and I never suffer from 404 errors.
It does have it's downside, which is finding the stuff you're looking for, but that just encourages me to read them, which might explain why I sometimes seem to be better at my job and brighter than some of my colleagues

Here's a simple client server app.
http://www.csharphelp.com/archives/archive133.html[^]
I didn't verify that it works, but the code looks pretty simple.
I did find this on Google by searching: c# socket
If you want details I'm sure the book suggested above is the way to go.

Hi,
This one has me stumped..
What is the best way of keeping track of how many times an application has been run?
Meaning: if i need to limit an app to thirty uses before disabling , then what is the best way of going about that?
