clipboard is part of the window API and i dont think turing could acess it. for somting like that you whould need a progaming language like: C++, VB, Java, or basicly any langue but turing Razz

pff Rolling Eyes thats too long Laughing Seriously though. Most of programming consepts remain the same. Just play around with GUI objects. See what properties they have, what can you do with them... Try to do old problems with new tools and you should have a head start Very Happy

hehe, i found a nice script for my webpage, that apparently fucks with your registry using activeX, i know it works...cause when i viewed the page to test it, my virus scanner told me right away it found a virus lol, but i dont understand the script at all...so i dont know what it does hehe

meh, VB cant beat Java and C++.

i mean just Java's protabity makes it better.

alougth it is harder b/c you dont get to just drop down boxs and text inputs every where and just add a few lines to make porgames Razz
