    Convert PDF file to text

    Adobe has an add-in that converts PDF to multiple different formats, including excel, word, text, etc. Yes, you need to have Adobe, the free web version accessible at a minimum. The only other ways, I can think of off the top of my head are... 1. If the PDF file contains the text, meaning open...

    reversed words in english leading new english words

    While my awareness of such words is on the level of mom, dad, and toot, there are already people who asked this question and have compiled some answers already, and there are some words that describe this strange thing... https://savvy-writer.com/words-spelled-backwards-to-form-other-words/...

    Converting an old XP VB6 program to run on Windows 7 & Windows 10

    1st off, try strongm's suggestion else I have forgotten a whole lot in the past decade or two no longer using vb but you might, depending upon the controls you used, because there is the standard textbox that came with vb and other textboxes that come with various things, like access...

    Using picurebox in class without a form

    Oh could be wrong, but I believe there are a set of API's that can handle all of your requirements... let me see... where is the vb6 and the api viewer... Okay, there it is...(wow it still works!) In help, on the index tab, type in createbitmap, at the bottom of that help page you should see...

    (Remote) SQL database

    >Most people won't open TCP 1433 on firewalls because of things like the Slammer Worm. SQL Server remains vulnerable just because it is a popular target. Most people will only allow this via a VPN. For SQL 2k see SP3 or SP4 (? on the numbers) but ran across it the other day and quick glance...

    Is computer programming an art?

    Just another opinion but would you not say that now a days if you can create a program that does not crash on a M$ system or bring that M$ system down... would that not require just at least a little bit of artistry in the programming or at least in the error handling??? And while art is in the...

    Password protected database

    Ahhh... I think the problem is, is that someone did not realize the OP is trying to password protect a CSV file or a text file through an ADO ODBC DNS Less connection string... But if there is a way, see http://www.connectionstrings.com Good Luck

    Plot addresses in Google Maps

    I believe, could be wrong as I have not read them in a while, but google really does not want their stuff used by fat clients. Check out their EULA for their Map API just to be sure. Then, as a hint, using a regular browser, do your search and look at the url... Good Luck

    COM Interop and Binary Compatibility

    NO! But as has been advised before, you could change it so that any calls to it are passed through to the .Net dll and then passed back... Good Luck
