----------------------------------- santabruzer Wed Nov 19, 2003 4:45 pm copy things to clipboard ----------------------------------- Hey! How do you make a program that will copy "data" to clipboard? santabruzer ----------------------------------- Dan Wed Nov 19, 2003 6:01 pm ----------------------------------- 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 :P ----------------------------------- santabruzer Wed Nov 19, 2003 8:20 pm ----------------------------------- ok.. but then it is possible to make it so you could copy text from the "execution" window? ----------------------------------- Tony Wed Nov 19, 2003 8:51 pm ----------------------------------- you can "copy" text into a text file ----------------------------------- santabruzer Wed Nov 19, 2003 9:20 pm ----------------------------------- that's the best turing can do? ----------------------------------- Mazer Wed Nov 19, 2003 9:54 pm ----------------------------------- that's the best turing can do? ah... now that's something you may find yourself saying quite often as you learn more about turing :lol: yes, yes it is. ----------------------------------- santabruzer Wed Nov 19, 2003 11:04 pm ----------------------------------- maybe i should move to VB then... :lol: ----------------------------------- thoughtful Wed Nov 19, 2003 11:13 pm ----------------------------------- As fast as u can :P ----------------------------------- Tony Wed Nov 19, 2003 11:21 pm ----------------------------------- VB is awesome :D Most importanly it has great API access not only of Windows, but of all MS Office applications as well 8) AND you can add custom DLLs and ActiveX components 8) ----------------------------------- santabruzer Thu Nov 20, 2003 12:02 am ----------------------------------- Time to get out the "Learn Visual Basic in 21 Days" book.... :D ----------------------------------- Tony Thu Nov 20, 2003 12:07 am ----------------------------------- "Learn Visual Basic in 21 Days" pff :roll: thats too long :lol: 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 :D ----------------------------------- Homer_simpson Thu Nov 20, 2003 4:48 pm ----------------------------------- man... VB is the easiest powerful programming language i worked with...(not counting qbasic or turing as powerful languages... :roll: =Þ) but yo i almost owned the language after 3 days working with it =) ----------------------------------- Thuged_Out_G Thu Nov 20, 2003 4:58 pm ----------------------------------- ActiveX components 8) 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 ----------------------------------- Mazer Thu Nov 20, 2003 6:56 pm ----------------------------------- how can it work if a virus scanner detects it right away? :P ----------------------------------- Dan Fri Nov 21, 2003 4:03 pm ----------------------------------- 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 :P ----------------------------------- Andy Fri Nov 21, 2003 6:51 pm ----------------------------------- VB is the cheapest language in the world... IT SPELL CHECKS YOUR FRIGGING CODE FOR YOU!!! ----------------------------------- Tony Fri Nov 21, 2003 8:02 pm ----------------------------------- IT SPELL CHECKS YOUR FRIGGING CODE FOR YOU!!! maybe Dan should use VB more often then :lol: ----------------------------------- Andy Fri Nov 21, 2003 8:49 pm ----------------------------------- lol, screw word, i'm doing my essays on vb... jk
