Very interesting post, because I cannot find the post where all the quotes are from ;) . Was there any post which was deleted from Zirus Blackheart. The sound which cames up remembers me to an nordic guy we have had here approximatly two years ago. :D
In all such cases I really would want to know from these guys, why are they asking for help when they refuse to learn from the people they have asked ?
BTW I also did my first byke myself. My father has learned me all that stuff as he was a trained sewing machine technician. An we havn't had much moes and this was after the second world war.. And it learned me a lot. It learned me to do all what I want to do, as professioal as possible from the very first moment. And Cjard obviously also knows very well what he is talking about.:D
And the first time I started with C# the code reading from the designer created code speeded up my knowledge about coding in a huge amount.
In this one reading of one page of code I could learn :
a) how to create objects using C#
b) how dispose works
c) how to stop unwanted side effects during initialisation of a form using ISupportInitialize
d) How to add delegates
e) usage of region - if you would have studied the code you wouldn't have needed to ask for that Zirus
f) how to add controls to a form and to set their properties.
...
This is a small part of the full list only for getting an idea of what you CAN learn if you want to learn.
If you dont want to learn, - its easy - simple dont ask.

There was.. He wrote it, I quoted a reply, he deleted his post in the interim

Probably because of the way I put it across. I'm not particularly finessed with respect to the feelings of others (i'm blunt) nor am I overly worried about becoming so. I love a good debate, but I'm usually found emphatically arguing a point I firmly believe to be right. To save myself some embarassment I do usually ensure that I am right, but some people dont like to be told in the way that I prefer to tell and a backlash is something I've come to expect, occasionally look forward to.
To whit and in summary, I can be a smartarse and in this day and age of political correctness, it gets people's backs up. I could change the way I deliver my diatribe, but there's something about the efficiency of bluntness that appeals to me.

The other thing I was musing recently.. we can tell when we start living in a truly first world advanced country, twhen it is more cost effective to go out to our job and work for a day, and use the money to pay a mechanic to fix the car. he does cars all day every day and will do the job faster than we can, which means less cost. If we take a day out to fix what he can fix in half a day, and charge us a quarter of our day's earnings for it then we are 2 times better off to get him to do it. Put another way, would you rather have:
Fixed car, dirty hands, miss your afternoon appointment, $0
Fixed car, clean hands, make your afternoon appointment, $300
The one inviolable thing i've found is that the love you or I put into doing a good job can often surpss the quality of work put in by one who is being paid to do it.. but then if it fails we ahve only ourselves to blame.. whereas if someone else did the work, they have to fix it..
It all adds up to the point where being a master of everything is not needed any more - just specialise, earn, and buy in the skills you lack.. Which brings us nicely back around to "buying in" the "skills" of the forms designer to do the work for us..
But, as ever, I digress..

Hehe, yes, but its funny. I fully agree with you. But myƔybe youngsters are too young to understand the worth of their own time. But you can be sure, he will learn it, at least when he grows up to 60 :D like me
