Maybe, maybe not. I told you whats I'm interested in. I'm interested if you do what we are trying to teach you. I cannot see this in an exe file. Not to ope an exe written by a foreign is a basic principle I use since years. I also dont download unknown other software if it isn't common known to be a good, well known product.Quote:

Attention.:Come down. One more of this sort of insuling comments and as CPUwiz told you, you will get banned here for everQuote:

When someone says they won't run an exe from an unknown source, why are you trying to force them to? Running exe's from unknown sources is the best way of catching a virus/trojan. Standard practice is to post the code here, *not* exe's. Once agian, this is standard practice which you're ignoring because you know better (please see point 4 above).
Thing is, no-one is out to get you, or insult you, just trying to help. So all we're asking for is to get a bit more than just lip-service when we offer you advice. It'd be nice if you listened and took it on board.
Sorry this isn't what the dictionary says about stubborn. If you want to say that I didn't change my intention then say it exactly that way. stubborn in the maindefinition are a lot of german words and as you are a nordic you will understand them when I list it here:Quote:

The rules have to be used, get it !
I'm really not trying to break any rules :(
Skandinavians might have other meanings of words than in america...
Here is the source files. Zipped with normal zip. I pasted in all the directories and files i thought were important.
I really hate it when you guys get mad at me :(
You still haven't taken on board the advice to not store your StreamReaders and Writers at the class level, but at the method level. You also haven't taken advantage of the "using()" pattern to guarantee the release of your unmanaged resources such as your StreamReaders and Writers...
changes toCode:SW = File.CreateText(saveResult.FileName);
SW.Write(txtbox1.Text);
SW.Close();
Also, you still haven't started naming your variables in an informative way. "SW" is hardly informative. I have no idea what "txtBox1" is, and neither will you in a months time.Code:using(StreamWriter writer = File.CreateText(saveResult.FileName))
writer.Write(txtbox1.Text);
dahwan ! Just as Mutant_Fruit said, there are no big changes in the way you are doing. Reread what we suggested in former posts, do it and come back to us.Quote:

Dont forget this are all languages near to german only divergating some hundert years before. So forget your justifications.Quote:

Actually. That piece of code took me a lot to write. It took time, energy and the will to succeed ^^
If it still doesnt look good, it's a sign you are too pro to be helping a noob like myself...
I called you stubborn because i am trying to convince you that i'm not an evil hacker that wants to take controll over you'r PC's (^^P) and you won't budge. Thats stubbornness. And if in english "stubborn" is only a negative word then its diffrent in norwegian. We use stubborn as being hard to convince/true to what you believe in/wont budge. So it can be positive, negative or plain neutral; as i used it.
you are too stubborn to download my file;
you are absolutely impossible to convince to download my file;
i want you do download my file, but you wont budge;
i don't mean it offencively !
Sorry for all of this :(
Fair play. You wrote a program. A lot of people give up trying to figure out for loops. You did better than most.Quote:

You've insulted some people because they're "too pro" to help you, yet you seem to be "too pro" to accept help. In fact, this quote neatly wraps it up:Quote:

You can argue that some of what we're suggesting might possibly be considered overkill for this code, but unless you learn good practices and apply them *everywhere* you will screw up. If you applied that level of coding to a project which spans several dozen classes you'll find yourself in a mess of:Quote:

naaw, i name stuff better than that, right? The reason things are a bit badly named is that this program was following a tutorial at the start. But things were going to well that i kept going. The only bad name in my program (i think) is txtbox1, but that RichTextBox was originally a normal textbox, so its not that weird actually =/
Thanks!! i try :DQuote:

What's the best book to start learning C#?
There are lots of good books.I personally like the MS Visual C# 2005 Step by step as a very easy starting bookQuote:

Its downloadable if you want and its really a good explanation of the different language specific things like delegates, indexers, generics and all that things. And its illustrated, means there are pictures and lots of things you can get really 'mass' about what you are doing when programming in that language.
But the main thing in all attempts to learn by books is going from page to page, reading, checking every word, you dont understand, making lots of examples so you feel good about waht you are reading. Looking into other books are maybe necessary when you will hang on a term which isn't explained properly or if you cannot find a definition for it. No difference if this is really a special term or only an expression of daily life, when you don't understand a word you will never understad the full sense of a sentence. To much of such words, overseen during studying a book will trap you. You will get tired of this book, which mostly leads you to change the book. -Its too complicated - lets try another one ;) .
This could be true, if the autor is an expert unable to express himelf in simple words. I have seen books which used 10 scientific words in just 3 sentences, which had absolutl nothing to do with what I wanted to stusdy- Obviously the author wanted to show that he is an authority, a very special expert and you would need to be a full graduated one, to read his book. I cleared up the meaning of this words too and some pages later I found out that this expert was unable to explain things in a simple way. A person who wants to impress people, the real information of this book was in truth less then some other books which didn't try to impress the readers, but to inform them
So a good english-english wordbook ( if english is your mothertongue ) which explains the significance of words and a good technical glossar ( which should be part of any good technical book ) is minimum you need during studying. When you have gone through a chapter and you can easily use what you have read in selfcreated examples, then you have won. :D then and only then read next chapter.
Thanks, JonnyPoet, your post was really helpful.
You are welcome. If any specific questions then post them (if necessary with a piece of code ) so we get the idea, where help is needed.:wave:Quote:

DahWan, give it up. Some guy says he wont run your exe, he wont run your exe. Quit whining about everything to do with it.
You want free advice, do as youre asked - some guy asks you to post source, post source. Dont sit and moan about how much easier and time saving it is for you to post an exe and he should accept that; thats crap.
You KNOW it is the other way round - youre taking time out of HIS day to get YOUR problem answered and giving him nothing but hassle about it. If you cant see this as an affront, you need to use a site like rentacoder - when youre paying for code/advice, then you get rights to mouth off, but till then.. wind your neck in a little bit.
If you repeatedly get up people's noses you'll find you get ignored an awful lot.. That can represent a significant barrier to your learning.
Maybe you got over this already, but think on it for the future, for the next time you come asking for the most precious thing a person can give you (their time) - if you help them as much as you can, they will give it willingly and ask nothing in return other than a thanks. Be reasonable.
Stor klem and all that!
Its not like i'm on my butt recieving and recieving all day. I allso take time out of my life to help other people. In fact thats what most of my time goes to. Not in programming but in computer graphics. I too spend a lot of time on forums ansvering other people's questions. I too get crap thrown at me when i give comments ppl dont like.
But its not like i dont understand you. When i look back at my posts (pages <4) i get imbarrased.
I'm sorry for all the pain and wasted time i've caused you.:(
OK, then "enough said", and lets all move on.Quote:

After the programming i can go to therapy with my attitude problems !
Really. I got a gf, and i am really working on the pride, arrogance and rudeness =)
I've received enough complaints about this thread that I believe it is time to close it.
Let's end the conversation with that.
Thanks,
Brad!
