Turbo Pascal was my first introduction to programming in College. Now don't
get me wrong - I'm no programmer, I just did what had to be done in College
and Uni. (Pascal, C, Java and C++) but one thing I liked about Turbo Pascal,
which I've been looking for in VBScript with no such luck, was the gotoxy()
function. Great for column-type output. Where has the functionality gone??
<g>
As for NetBIOS programming I admire you older programmers - you really had
to write code. Nothing nice and easy like try {} catch, etc. now ;-)
As for assembler...well, that just astounds me.
Can you read binary??? <g>

I believe I still have my "C Programmer's Guide to Netbios" around here somewhere. And I just found it listed on Amazon (used) for 98 cents <grin> By the time we got that book we had been doing it for a while but it seemed so cool to actually have a book on the subject. You may not remember when a visit to the bookstore would turn up maybe 10 books in the computer "section". (Two or three of the ten would be in ForTran.) -- Herb Martin > > -- > > Paul Williams > > http://www.msresource.net > http://forums.msresource.net > > > "Herb Martin" <news@LearnQuick.com> wrote in message > news:%23RzIMSQzEHA.3844@TK2MSFTNGP12.phx.gbl... > "ptwilliams" <ptw2001@hotmail.com> wrote in message > news:eHXvLVCxEHA.3088@TK2MSFTNGP12.phx.gbl... > > Hi Herb, > > > > Can you use the fact that multiple logons cause a conflict with the <03> > > bit? > > > > (I've never really looked into NetBIOS as I started administering servers > > with win2000 and have only recently -since changing job in March- started > > working with NT <blush>) > > Sorry for the delay -- I have been away a lot. > > No, not unless you monitored them with a custom > process or network filter (write an entire new program) > -- and run it on every WINS or broadcast domain -- since > the NetBIOS name registration can happen on either a > broadcast basis or at each WINS server. > > (FYI for the merely curious: I have written NetBIOS API > code starting with DOS 3.x., but nothing recently.) > > -- > Herb Martin > > > > > > -- > > > > Paul Williams > > > > http://www.msresource.net > > http://forums.msresource.net > > > > > > "Herb Martin" <news@LearnQuick.com> wrote in message > > news:ODLg773wEHA.2676@TK2MSFTNGP12.phx.gbl... > > "Veets" <dddetrretsssadasy@hotnospmamail.com> wrote in message > > news:O4dt4R2wEHA.3228@TK2MSFTNGP10.phx.gbl... > > > Hey Herb, thanks for the reply.
