night furyyyy
excel is making my eye twitch. :bug: :bug: :bug: literally - twitch twitch
learned how to use a worksheet function in vba :lol:
Set MyRange = Worksheets("detail").Range("$A:$A")
MyCount = Application.WorksheetFunction.CountA(MyRange, MyTarCel)
learned to ReDim for an array.
don't see any pretty way to filter itemlist in a form-listbox. (not the active x one)
with the counta i can see how many i should have in the itemlist,
but how to get the individual items from column2 sheet2
vlookup will bring back one item
trying to do the dashboard thing.
Cake waiting for me at home.
too much to expect it will greet me at the door.
chocolate butter cream hugz.
And on the fifth month you rested. You're too hard on yourself, TroutFace.

Maybe.. but it's just me doing this, solo, and without external feedback (although ps1borg has been aa GREAT help :coolsmile:) so it hasn't been as bad. :red:
Yeah, the 20th is going to be serious party day, releasing my first full album AND hitting 56! :coolsmile:
Resting is a good idea, actually... :-S
Glad you've escaped the twisters this time. Wish we could escape the rains. Every time I think it's quit, it just starts again. The creek between my house and the Y is running fast.
@Dana: Yep, I've got plenty of ventilation so no problem with the stove. If it ever quits raining, we're going to use the grill in the backyard.
I'm just glad you're doing OK. Keep safe!!! {{{{{ Annie }}}}}
JAVA was the my straw that broke the camel's back. Just got tired of learning new languages. No, not tired, burned out. Haven't programmed at all since 2001. I look at the titles in the computer tech section of a bookstore and I don't even know what languages do what. Back in my day (here we go...) young'uns, anything was possible in assembler. True, it would take a lifetime to do the impossible but that which was possible had intrinsic value (rockets to the moon and balanced bankbooks). Now the impossible is normal but value is questionable (Twitter and the ilk). Back in my day every half-brained computer science student would write a new text editor and do a happy dance of unabashed arrogance. Today every half-brained computer science student writes a new language and does a happy dance of unabashed arrogance. Thank god I was never a computer science student.

Heh.. I remember my first text editor :red: and my first Adventure game! :coolsmile: Both in FORTRAN, for Heavens sake!
And there are too damn many languages, I agree. :shut: The ones I've touched are C (30 year coding), C++ (10 years coding), FORTRAN (7 years), C# (3 years), Java (1 year), and Perl (1 year).. used professionally. I've toyed with Lua (fugly syntax), Lisp (kill me now), Javascript (not too sucky), and Ruby (they're kidding, right?). :bug: :gulp:
Wish I could change fields and still make a living. :shut:

Reminds me I am looking for a free good word processor for my Windows computer..

...I left coding in 1993 after a serious bout of burnout myself.
I also feel the same way concerning all these scripting languages in use today. Elegant "top down" programming is a thing of the past these days, as apparently is documentation.
Was also one of those math guru's in school as I was hoping to get into aeronautical engineering. Yeah, designing jet planes using slide rules and mechanical drafting tools. :cheese:
Used to have fun going to the supermart and asking the cashier not to hit the total key before I gave my estimate (including the cost for weighed items like veggies and any applicable sales tax). Rarely would be off more than a few pennies and this was in the day when one didn't have that handy pocket calculator to cheat with...er...use.
https://www.openoffice.org/ <3</p>
https://notepad-plus-plus.org/ As well, though it's more focused for scripting and coding than general typing (Which it can do too, but OpenOffice is more for general typing)
I've toyed around with Ruby a bit, I kind of like it :)
Of course it's only the second language I've actually dived into to any extent, so...... ^^;

Thanks for the link. I forgot about that one.
Does anyone know how to clear cache in the latest version of firefox? I want to clear the cache but not delete all the cookies
I don't use firefox so I'm no help at all, but I do know how to clear cache. I just go shopping on Amazon.com with my debit card and poof my cache is all gone.
Missed me by thaaat much.
Just got news that our usual parking spot for breakfast on Friday mornings is now under a pile of bricks. It seems the old three story brick hotel/hardware/misc. store in Randolph, NY that has been an empty eyesore for 50 years and unable to attract a buyer, just gave up the ghost and fell over dead.

Well, I have a trained graphics artist who is local interested in helping me with album art. :bug::bug:
I gave him a link to the prelim version of the album and he listened to all hour and 11 of it.. says he has ideas and will share concept art :bug::bug:
This just might turn out better than I expected... :red::red:

May 20. I took the 20th and 21st off :red: :red:
...open the "Tools" menu at the top of the window, click "Options" then "Advanced" (the "gear" icon) and Click on the "Network" tab. Under "Cached Web Content" there will be a button labelled 'Clear Now". Click that (will take a few moments to clear).
complaint - skeeeeets. itch.
wuh ohs - fire watch.
...kind of like when the Loma Prieta quake happened in '89. Had a friend's uncle not taken off from work early that day to watch the third game of the World Series, he would have been stuck in traffic on lower deck of the Nimitz Freeway when it collapsed.

They moved it out of the History - > Clear Recent History? o.o
Another option would be to use CCleaner: https://www.piriform.com/ccleaner
It can clean out the cache of your browsers just fine, amongst other things like Temporary Files and so forth.
...that's what usually use for my regular maintenance and cleanup routine as well.
safari has a cache.db file
thats the way uh huh uh huh
shake shake shake, shake yoo booty
tee hee :lol:
Ah, "Caveman". The movie that taught us the two most essential words of human language. "zugzug" and "shit".
...ahh, once again no longer in the PC. Forgot that my 3 month membership expired this past weekend and I don't currently have the cash to renew. When I looked at my account page it still shows the 7.95$ monthly renewal as an option even though it no longer exists. Pity, I actually have enough in my bank account to cover that. Guess I'll have to wait until the end of the week. Hopefully I'll be be able to renew before Monday as this week's freebie is a very useful one.
I remember there used to be a short grace period of a couple days. Guess not anymore.
Odd that I'm still getting the newsletter though.
Hello. Busy day for me, and long day. I had to get up pretty early, because of Jury Duty out of town. No cases required juros, though. They all pled out. when I got home, I had something to eat and then I got nostalgic and Googled downtown of my old city, where the court was (the one where Hernandes was on trial all these months). I found lots of old photos, lots. I get lost in things like that and the hours just fly away.
I'm tired.

...been doing a bit of the same tonight as well. Mostly checking sites in the UK where my story takes place. Of course there is some degree of "creative licence" involved as there really is no Grande Estate near Swindon or Percy Estate along the south coast of the Bristol Channel, Or Net47 Tower in London.
Did happen upon an old abandoned WWII aerodrome south of Swindon which will work nicely in the story as an active private airfield used by the Grande, Kyle, and Trevor estates for their personal aircraft (including Lady Meg's BRG Harrier).
Trying to figure out how my wireless plan is set up. Maybe I can visit the T-mobile kiosk this afternoon. I would have to talk to the guy that set up my account to be the way it is. It has nothing to do with me thinking he is so hot. Of course I cannot say anything other wise that would be a turn off.
