I've got a Form that won't Hide.
In the following code:
   1. The first debug.print displays, as expected, True.
   2. The second debug.print displays, as expected, False.

If I type ipconfig from a command prompt, two IP addresses are returned -
The one from my router which is 192.168.1.101, and one from an adapter from
my internet service provider, which is a "real" internet address.
If I use the Winsock control, the LocalIP property returns the 192.

     I have a bill generation form which consist of all the items including
rate which are displayed in mshflex grid . I want to print that bill directly
to the dot matrix printer in text format without using crystal report. How
should I go about.    

I get an error for a duplicate compiler const.  I have no compiler const in
my project.  Any idea why this might happen?

I have implemented the algorithm shown in the pseudocode below. I would like
to add another cost/weight to the edges/links where it has priority over the
distance. Edges belong to particular lines and I would like to get hold of
those edges (if any) before changing to other edges ...

I am using a Common Dialog box to search for a file name and return the file
name. Yes it returns the entire path which is ok, but how can I isolate just

I have a function which prototype looks like the following:
  RequestValue([in] BSTR strCategory, [in] BSTR strProduct, [out] LONG*
status, [out] VARIANT* vValue)
I declared a LONG variable as follows:

Not all of my "source" tables include primary keys (don't need it for my
purposes).  Unfortunately, that means I can't use the CommandBuilder to
generate SQL based on my SelectCommand.  I've tried to manually generate the
SQL commands (and they look right), but I seem to be ...

simple routine but for some reason it escapes me. Eg. say a user has a choice
of x or o and I want to count how many times he clickes on x(x and o are
different click procedeures). I don t want to use a ...

This has been bugging me for a while.  Why is VB like the only language that
treats the boolean value of True as the integer -1?  C/C++, C#, and Java, to
name a few, all treat it as the integer 1.  This gets to be annoying when you
