Yes, of course there is.

Of course there is a Visual COBOL. Micro Focus owns it apparently (I think Fujitsu had created it originally).

It's been years since I had to deal with ComponentOne, but from what I recall, they sucked. Anything would be better.
Does Telerik have something you could use? From what I recall, their web forms controls and support were fantastic.

Slow Eddie I do not hare a recommendation but would very much like to ask for help installing VB6 on a Windows 7 64 bit machine. I have VB6 pro and when I lost my XP machine I lost the ability to write code in VB6 thanks Dwight

Choroid,
sorry for the delay but my email serve has been down for a week and I just got this.
Running the Setup program as an administrator, always worked for me. Once the VB6 is installed, go to the VB6 C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\VB98\vb6.exe and right click in the VB6 exe to set it up to run as administrator.
Hope tis does it for you.
Old guys need love too....

We will be rebooting some network hardware for COdeProject this evening.
As a result you may encounter a short outage for about 2 minutes around 7:00PM EDT.

just as a side thought: I still wonder if the starving kids in Africa enjoyed the peas I wouldn't eat?

in reality I imagine more of something like a southpark skit:
some random kid in Africa opening an envelope filled with squished (probably moldy and half desiccated by then) peas.
can see the floating "? ? ?" popping up already.

What's the difference between a lightbulb and a pregnant woman?
You can unscrew the lightbulb.
|
|
|
|
|
How many people does it take to screw in a light bulb?
At least two, but it has to be a big light bulb.

A Surface Pro 3 - ex display stock, minor cosmetic damage to one corner, but the screen is perfect, and it comes with the Type Cover in a fetching red flock-feel. Includes PSU but no pen, but for the price (£220 incl delivery) I can live with that.
So ... it's ex display, and I don't know the password. And Windows 10 is finicky about such things. Plus it connects to my WiFi but "no internet" so I suspect that is disabled in settings I can't get to.
I'll wipe and reload with a fresh recovery OS download. May take a while, but I should end up with a clean and clear machine.
Surprisingly, it seems quite quick - 54% recovery in 15 mins or so. I guess the SSD is way faster than the WookieTab one was.

That bar's gotta be pretty low, given that (I think?) you mentioned the WookieTab was a Chinese cheapie. MS uses premium parts in their Pro lineup. Even my first-gen Surface Pro's SSD was noticeably faster than the one in my (also first-gen) Surface RT.

It's been long established that MS created the Surface devices (at least the Pro ones) to showcase what the software can do on good hardware, since OEMs were doing such a piss-poor job of it, in the name of minimizing expenses and maximizing profits.
BillWoodruff wrote: I am curious if you have seen some tear-down article somewhere that made such comments
The tear-down articles invariably mention how easy (or difficult) the hardware is to take apart for some "repairability score", which has little to do with the choice of hardware used. I didn't buy the tablet to take it apart or replace hardware. In this sense, MS isn't any more guilty of any wrongdoing than, say, Apple is with its own tablets.
But what do I know, I'm just using my own 5+ years worth of experience using the device first-hand to judge it with, not based on the opinion of some blogger paid to rip MS to shreds because it's the popular thing to do and makes for a clickbait headline.
