Been reluctant to answer because I have the day off tomorrow and going to a remote beach where coverage is hit and miss.
But...

We have an ERP system which requires development in JScript.NET ( That's right the version that Microsoft stopped supporting since vs2008 ). There is no other option. There are hardly any resources and if you get stuck you are at perils of trial and error.
Now I have requirement to create autocomplete textbox where user can input address and it can make API call to give list of addresses and user can select one. How hard can it be ?

Less than VB6 I'd say. If I have some VB6 problem I have to solve it myself. Luckily there are no such things as VB6 problems. Maybe that's why they dropped it.

That's because of On Error Resume Next! That still exists in VB.Net

The first commercial program I wrote was in VB6 way back in 1999 and initially ran on Windows 98, and it continues to run flawlessly even today in Windows 10.

Nearly every time I left-click my mouse, the computer thinks I clicked twice.
As an example; I click the X to close a browser tab and two tabs close. 
I suspect it's my IOGEAR KVM's fault; I may need to replace it.
|
|
|
|
|
But why, oh why, do you click twice all the time?!  
|
|
|

It's probably a dirty or worn microswitch - open it up, read the number off the switch and order one from FleaBay, RS or Farnell. It's pretty easy to replace one if you have basic soldering skills - a minute or two is all for three pins - and it's a lot more socially responsible in terms of "repair, reuse, recycle" than binning it.
For my Logitech Trackman, the switches are D2FC-F-7N but read the existing as not all need the push contact in the same place. Last time I did it - several years ago - I got two switches for under a pound, instead of the 50 quid or so they wanted for a new unit.

Maybe you're just getting old? I've noticed that old people double-click rather than single-click.
|
|
|
|

Some old people find very difficult to do double click. They simply do two single click.

I actually need to remove my hand from the mouse at times to keep from accidental clicks.

I had a similar issue for about 2 or 3 weeks - it drove me crazy. It affected my browser windows as well as my file manipulation(open, save, copy, cut, paste, etc.) Anyhow, it just went away one day. Don't know if it was a windows update somewhere or what, but I could not fix it on my own.
Good luck with this.

I had one that suddenly decided to rotate itself by 90 degrees, so if I moved it up it went right, etc.
It's still in a box, somewhere. I'm hoping to sell it for a fortune -- after all, people pay crazy money for defective postage stamps, don't they?

There's a secret: postage stamps are flat. Try flattening it with a hammer.
