Oops....I forgot to tell you. That's a nice job.
Hope you'll remove the postback on Tab click(s) in future(I know you are doing something[sorting, etc.,] on Tab click).
Thank you.

Removing the postback can be done two ways:
1. Load each tab via Ajax
2. Load the contents of each tab at page load time.
(2) is what we used to do and it's way too much payload. I could do (1) but it will have to be a rainy-day project.

The "T" of the third word in each case should be lower case.
But it doesn't matter, it just looks odd.

I want to post VB.NET related topic in Arabic Language here. Is this Language welcome here?

If you have a problem with your English, the mentors will be only too glad to help.

As others have pointed out, this is an English only site. If you need help, get in touch.my Arabic as near non-existant, but I know which grammatical mistakes Arab-speakers tend to make through correcting my wife's work.

please help me with this 2 loops, to remove duplicates[^]
While I agree that the original question was vague, it was his first, and he did well in understanding what his problem was once it was explained and he was given alternatives. I understood it, at least enough to give an initial answer, and he now has his solution, a fair amount of education and is a happy bunny! I thought we were supposed to support these beginners, not make it harder for them!

I am glad to see you taking up the cause of an unfairly, and/or prematurely, closed question, and while my "QA Platinum" is dull-lead compared to the blinding-radiant-shine of yours, I can only hope a similar principle of justice will be applied to the travesty of the closing of this question[^], the removal of the comments, on the question, and the closing of my answer, all in a very short period of time, perhaps before the OP even had time to respond to the answer.
thanks, Bill

"Ignoring the suck-up bit:" Number one, I don't suck up: cannot you not absorb a hint of genuine respect expressed in a light-hearted way 
I may have accidentally reported my own answer as abuse, but I did not report the original question as abuse !
Number two, I acknowledged my error, and have, at length, reported on it here, and asked the situation to be remedied.
Juvenile reactive rant struck out:If it's not remedied, soon, then I will have other choice than to completely resign from CodeProject, since the idea that a mistake of mine results in the punishment of the original poster ... whose clarifying remarks to my clarifying questions were adequate for me to start an answer ... is intolerable.
Both the comment I made asking for clarification and the comment made by the OP in response have now been removed?: so the reader is deprived of seeing the context of the entire message.
And somehow, SAKruykov interjected himself in here voting to close the original post, even though he made no response to the OP, no comment on the question. Another act of abuse from our resident "Eye of Sauron" on QA, the pattern of which has actually caused folks of the calibre of Pete O'Hanlon to cease participation in QA.

You know- I feel I can't win here.
Bill - it's the weekend. I will answer your email and your posts on this topic as soon as I can, but if my need to have a few hours offline to catch up on sleep is too big of an ask and causes you to resign from helping others then the world is a far sadder and unforgiving place than I realized.

Chris, my sincere apologies that my strong feelings about this issue (in the larger context of CP, a mouse-tail's twitching under a wagon-wheel in a deserted barn on a moonless night) spilled over in such a way they brought you any stress ! Ultimatums are always a form of stupidity ?
At 68, my chronic insomnia is terrific, and battling it without drugs (through yoga, meditation, exercise) is a struggle I seem to be losing.
I kind of miss the wonderfully totally off-the-planet kind of insomnia, in my younger days, when I would have pulled an all-nighter wrestling some exotic piece of Illustrator 5's color separation code into shape
As a Thai mother would say to her child at bed-time, "norn dee, fun dee:" "sleep well, have good dreams."
best, Bill

Sorry! I'm married - I'm not used to getting respect... 
I didn't assume you had reported the OP as abuse - it was just the "this post reported by" on your response which got me! 
I apologise profusely if I have offended you in any way, it was never my intention.
From how I read it, you reported your post (probably by mistake), but the main question was reported by Chris Maunder and SAKryukov and there is nothing there which implies that you were in any way involved. I again apologise (with grovelling if necessary) if I in any way implied your were - that was not something I meant to do.
Don't abandon the site! We have had too many of the White Hats leaving of late...

The solution I posted at[^]: was pre-qualified by a comment to the OP asking him to clarify if he was using WinForms (which he did not respond to), and the solution I proposed was then further clarified by the OP's response to my comment in terms of the exact spec of the "image involved."
I then made a clear statement that the solution I presented only involved use of a PictureBox in WinForms. And, I posted tested code, that I tried out out an image I manufactured myself precisely to the spec described by the OP. Not only the code, but the link to the image were provided to the OP.
I also took the trouble to round out the answer by considering under what circumstances the technique shown might not be optimal, or relevant, or might be used in other ways. I'd say I spent a minimum of half-an-hour on this answer.
I find a first vote of of -16 quite puzzling, but it does fit in with regular -16 votes any time I post anything on the Lounge that is originally creative.
I guess I have to "eat my words" now that I once boasted, here, that "I never looked at reputation"
thanks, Bill

Hi Chris,
I never voted down, flagged, or reported as abuse the original question which was quite appropriate: why has the OP now been punished ?
I guess I interpreted the facility to report "abuse" as also appropriate to use to report a message ... in this case my solution ... "being abused," and I believe I indicated why I reported the message in the brief text message that you can add to the report. If that was inappropriate, or I did not clearly indicate the reason: sorry about that !
So, the only way to raise the issue of an "odd" down-vote, is to report it here ?
If that's the case, I can live with that: I'm certainly a strong believer that being abusive to oneself is not constructive
However, the original post was not abusive, and my comments to get the OP to clarify the question were appropriate. And my answer is appropriate.
So, I strongly suggest your reverse the draconian solution that has been carried out here, and re-open both the original post, my comments on the original post, and my answer.
Meanwhile I will write a personal message of apology to the OP that a quite possibly legitimate question has been evidently closed because of my mistake.
The OP acted in "good faith," and his question was more specific than most, and he did reply quickly to a clarifying comment from me. Please, let's not "take it out" on him !
best, Bill
