For many years, I've had a problem controlling my weight, and given the sedentary nature of working as a developer in an office setting, it's really easy to get out of shape and turn into a "blob", of sorts. I was thinking about applying some of my programming skills to losing weight and posting the results here on CP as an article--but I'm not sure if that would qualify as a "programming" article. So anyway, here's my question--do you think something like that would be applicable on CP, or should I just leave something like this to my own blog?

will take .. if you wrote a snazzy app for example that showed the balance between sitting at the desk vs calories consumed vs exercise done, then it might be fun ..
go for it Philip

How do you apply programming skill to lose weight? Lock the fridge with an encryption algorithm you can't crack?

Not quite. A simple example would be to write something that would keep track of your workouts and your caloric intake, and it would still be up to you to do the rest of the work so that you can lose the weight.

i would like to request to write some article regarding using datagridview. Including MSDN, very simple use is discussed but no body tells how to deal with complex situations, like using combobox setting its selectedindex property of datagridviewcomboboxcell object, validating date, calculating amounts in columns, and very important how to relate two combobox in two columns, like in 1st columns there are companies in a combobox and in 2nd columns there are brand of those companies in combobox how can we relate combobox to fill only those brand from selected company,
Best Regards

An article about sensible data (using MFC), would it be interesting to someone?... or about CRichEditCtrl (also using MFC), might it be useful?

Write the articles. Even if it's not relevant to what I'm doing on a day to day basis, I do enjoy a well written article and will read it.

Do write the article, like Pete has mentioned. It may not be useful for my day-to-day programming purposes, but sounds like something I would find worth reading and other members of this site may find it useful, too.

Definately write the article. There will almost always be someone else who is running in to (or will run in to) a problem the article will help to solve.

I agree that articles should be written, even if they perhaps cover old ground, or state the obvious to many, or are duplicates of others.
What I feel is missing from the site, is the ability to rate an article on its uniqueness, usefulness and relevance.
I'm seeing far too many articles written these days which simply re-tell old stories, and often not very well. They appear to attract swarms who vote 5 across the board and risk muddying the ability to search for genuinely good, useful articles.

Why did you feel the need to post this question in no less than 7 different forum?? It's no longer likely your ever going to get an answer to this question seeing as you saw fit to do what everyone hates -> SPAM this site with your question. Pick a single forum most appropriate for your subject, like General Discussions in your case, and post your question ONCE!

I just read the article series The Life of a Project - Issue Tracking by Matt Gullett, and was very impressed. Unfortunately, it stops at Day 5 with listing the final technical requirements. Matt mentioned having Day 5 posted by the following weekend, but this was back in July of '03. Several others have posted in the comments section requesting to see the rest of the series with no reply since then. I know a lot of us really enjoy the series and find it very insightful. Does anyone know if the rest of the series is up somewhere that we just can't find, or if Matt will get a chance to finish the series? Once again, great series Matt!
Thanks,
Brandon

Have you tried emailing him? I know which article series you are mentioning and, yes, it is a really good one.

This is not the forum for this kind of request. You are better off emailing Chris.

Id like to learn, if anyone is willing to address the idea, specifically how to hook other processes from c#.
An example would be; how to hook minesweeper, msn, wordpad, word, whatever just the basics on hooking.

Have you done a search on CP articles about hooking processes[^]?

Yeah I didn't reall put the AND C# in my query which is probably why I skimmed over these...

No worries, dude.

I'd love to know if anyone can show how to emulate Google Chromes multi process apps in VB.Net. Just a simple form1, form2 or apps1, apps2 example maybe with a 'task manager' as well. I love the idea of if apps2/form2 crashes it wont take out the whole apps. Multi threading, MDI's or adding new forms just dont cut it.
Any thoughts??
