Hey ya heres a calc i made in VB.Net, finished today
it is mainly demonstrating something new i found:
NBG(no background) is a seethru background alowing the user the manipulate the environment behind a form thru the form...

o well cant really explain it, just try putting the form infront of an icon and dubl clicking that icon Razz ull see... cool stuff

Nice program, better than the one that comes with Windows although less features...

NBG is pretty cool, but it's usefulness is limited especially since the app goes behind whatever you clicked, so it's bacically as if you just clicked somewhere off the app (selecting some other window).

Well made!

there is a line of code that does this in vb.net:
code:
Me.TransparencyKey = Me.BackColor

but it does a few things i didnt like so i made my own lol

anyway it im trying to make a program that uses it to its extent

Couldn't you use this to make a cool-shaped form. If you turn the borders off and turn this on, couldn't you make your form any shape you wanted. This seems like the best/only application of this I can think of.

Now there's a new idea, multiple decimal points! Wink

like i said it might be just my computer messed up but any of the trigs are messed up. try putting any number in
example
sin 90 should = 1
but on this calculator it equals
0.893996663600558
