there always are a couple of those, however they tend to be few and far apart; so we should see them getting closer together? Let's wait and see.

Nah - you gave a sensible answer to it which, unfortunately, somebody else went and took all the fun out of.

You are aware of the DateTime struct? Right?

Use it. You have two dates. Subtract from the most recent the other one witch will result in a
timespan(I think) and use the ToSeconds()*60 or ToTotalMiliseconds()*...

On a separte note if you read the documentation you'll be able to achive the computation of time between two dates.

You took all the fun out of it by giving the answer away.

Seriously, the OP has learned nothing now. Luc was politely, and correctly, trying to point out that the information was blatantly, glaringly obvious to anyone with even a hint of .NET knowledge or the ability to use Google, and, IMO, the OP was wasting everyone's time.

Yes, I gave you a one. In my opinion it was a bad answer because you were encouraging the idiot to not do basic, simple research and rather rely on someone else to do their work.

If you want to be an ass, go right ahead, knock yourself out, have fun.

Ass aside and I admit I wanted to be one right then,

so ass aside do you honestly belive he was going to txt his way into documentation?

I highly doubt it.
I just got rid of him.
After all, he replied to my reply to Luc's more than fine answer. I was the first to 5 it.

So appologies for the my being an ass but I just don't agree with you on this one.

We have the reponsibility to encourage proper coding, design, architecture, etc. not just give answers.

Get rid of him? No, you just encouraged him to come back and ask more stupid questions rather than develop the skills that will help him to succeed in this career. We've been around here longer than you and have seen the pattern many times.

If you want to aplogize for being an ass, then remove the distracting, unnecessary posts pointing it out.

please do not remove a message that has replies; it should not be possible to do so but it is, and it is against the forum guidelines.

Now return to your book and pay special attention when you reach 'D'.

You didn't remove it by mistake, it took a conscious and deliberate act on your part. You were more than likely trying to save yourself embarrassment from posting such an obvious question

Hello
I embedded an resource "WINGDNG2.TTF" with vs2010.
Now I'm not able to access to that resource.
I try to access to it whith
"assemblyname.WINGDNG2.TTF"
or "mynamespace.WINGDNG2.TTF"
or "WINGDNG2.TTF"
but alway I have resource file not found.

I don't know whats wrong. Mybe because my namespace has an dot (.) ?

Thank you.

Yes, it is still confusing me when to use namespace/assembly name while accessing resources. Somethimes neither is required:

string resourceName="resources.myapp.ico";
icon=new Icon(type, resourceName);

works for me, when the icon file "myapp.ico" is located in the project's "resources" folder.
No namespace, no assemblyname involved.
