Windows Explorer Search Bug

Peenie Wallie — Wed, 29 Apr 2009 19:36:18 GMT

I never could figure out why Windows Explorer Search worked intermittently. All I knew was that sometimes it would work and sometimes it wouldn't. I quit using it years ago because I knew it was unreliable, and it bugged me,...

I also use C# exclusively, however, one of my customers is gay, and all there's nothing wrong with that, he obviously prefers Visual Basic. The good news is this is still a homogeneous solution (no pun intended) in that it's 100% Visual Basic.

I can't believe anyone has not decided to comment. Well i will. I think software development is best learned by book and trial and error. I took it in college and when i took it the first time the book was crappy and the reference online helped me only so much. I got a D i was like hell no, this can't be happening. So i went to the professor and he recommended a great work. Guess what! Got an A. With the good book, things made more sense, and i can read a book for a longer period of time than a screen. Althought i can play a pc game for hours ;) So there you have it. You are right.

Hi. I just got a brand new IBM Model M in the mail. They still sell them out there you know. Yes this keyboard rocks. Yes i am typing this on this keyboard right now. Man this is a rock solid keyboard. Now i actually want to type for fun. I have heard great things about the newer ones, but i decided to go for the classic IBM Model M from 1980's. This one is a 1988 model. Viva Model M!
