Correct, what I don't want to end up doing to having a page refresh itself concering the progress. The length of time to collect the data that Perl is retrieiving is very dependant on a lot of things. That is why to have a dynamically updated progress bar is desired so that we can see how much...

It appears to use the Netscape version of server push: " WARNING: YOUR BROWSER DOESN'T SUPPORT THIS SERVER-PUSH TECHNOLOGY Wasn't this a Netscape only thing a few years ago? Is there a clean way to do dynmic updating of a web page that is not browser specific? A 'refresh' is undesireable...

I need to display something like a status bar when pulling information from a data base that takes some time to perform. This is easily accomplished with a table code like: print &quot;<table width = 100% border = \&quot;1\&quot;><hr><td width = &quot; . $size ...

What method exists to handle this Windows popup dialog box through application program control: **** USB Hub Current Limit Exceeded An unknown device has exceeded he current limits of its hub port. Recommendation Disconnect the device and then click 'Reset' to re-enable the...

I have two tables, one with this weeks data, one with last weeks data. Both are identical except for the dates. I need to pull data from both tables, but I keep getting a &quot;ORA-00918: column ambiguously defined&quot; error message. This, of course, is because I told it to pull from the...

Hmm, ya, ok, that works. So, we're doing it the long way...line by line. Gets me going further in the right direction, though. Thank you.

Its a kinda silly question, but how do you tell a TEdit or TMemo control to use a newline character properly? I've tried the usuals of \r, \n, 10, 13, etc. I need to programatically fill the control, and newlines will be important. I'm passing an AnsiString argument: frmChat->memoChat->Text...

Also, does anyone know how to take the Address of a Method? I have a method inside a C++ Class that another function needs to call as a function pointer.

Ok, I have WSAAsyncSelect() sucessfully registered and I'm getting asynchronous callbacks from the socket to WindowProc() which is good. My problem is, since I'm only allowed to register one event, I must decode from WPARAM wParam, LPARAM lParam what is actually going on. Anyone got a chart...

I was looking at that route as well. Its a little nasty, but might be the only way to go until we get something better. As it seems to appear there is no precompiler way to do it this is the road I may be forced to take.

Its LabWindows/CVI (ANSI C) (Measurment Studio) from National Instruments running on MS Windows 9x. The compile itself does &quot;compiler defines&quot; and such, but I'm looking for an automated solution. I don't want to have to hand 'tweak' the code from situation to situation. I just need...

Yes, I see how that would go, with a good compiler. It is my fault that I did not qualify my situation. I'm looking for an ANSI C type (standard) solution because the choice of devlepement platform is somewhat limited for now. We have no 'make' files. I have the software vendor looking into...

I'm trying to compile for different cases. In some cases I have a desired library installed, in others I don't. I want the same piece of code to manage both. So if I have: #include <dataacq.h> and this file exists, everything is fine. If it does not exist, I get a [pre]compiler error...

I need to know how to do Com/SerialPorts in Borland C++ 5. From what I see, its pretty easy to set one up and write to it using the Win32SDK (CreateFile(), ReadFile(), WriteFile()), however, a callback function for incoming data would be welcome...byte per byte would be better. Or if I could...

I read Inside DirectX ISBN 1-57231-696-9 to learn about DirectSound. I did sucessfully use DirectX7SDK with VisualBASIC 6, though that was quite some time ago now. I used to have a C/C++ sample around but I now have to recreated it in my haste/anger with MS Windows. However, I've now moved on...
