Hey dudes :)
Ok, First thing first... I have not tried this on Win8, so just an assumption at the moment.
The Following code works on XP(SP3), Vista, & Win7 so far, but after giving my app to a friend who was suckered into Win10 because of the "Free" deal, says it's no longer working. The Applicatiuon runs, but doesnt work, & throws No Errors whatsoever.

Do you mean in code form for development in a programming IDE, or in something like noptepad?
If notepad, then binary is binary, & will always be binary. Notepad is for text. If the file you are opening is binary, then you can't do anything about it with notepad... unless you mean text from another language like Chinese, or Russian... in which case you can use a different editor to open it that alows you to change the code-page used... - 
	
	
	
	
How to Dim or Fade an image in a picturebox, or form background?
Hey dudes :)
I building a "LightShot" screenshot clone for windows, & all is going well to my suprise. :D I just want the image URL returned instead of only sometimes. LightShot moistly gives a URL to their site to view the image to advertise themselves i guess. :)
What I want to do now is be able to dim out the desktop when the PrtScrn button is pressed.

Hello Stewart :)
I live in the Cayman Islands, & this is more of a curse, than blessing. This place is overly expensive. Gas prices are now US$1.90 per gallon in the US, but still US$7+ here. This is a very unfair, & unforgiving place.
The PSU may have a price tag of...say US$80.00 in the US, but here, that price more than 5 times itself. A simple little PSU, yet cost more than a months US rent. What's worst is the...Leave a comment:

Hello Joseph :)
Thanks you for your info.
The Power Supply model is "Ultra X4 ATX 500w Modular Power Supply" (model # ULT-HE520X), & before completing the post of this question/topic, I browsed all over google, but only found it on eBay with a less than optimal picture.
The flow of the wiring seems to be: Main leads -> fuse -> Big Capacitor at rear side of the board -> Back to the 2 Diodes...Leave a comment:

ATX Power Supply - What is this burnt up thing inside?
Hey dudes :)
I opened up my power supply, & found the fuse intact, & brand new looking (really clean). Next, i checked for swollen capacitors, but none were found. Next, I held the board up to my face, & sniffed for that dead rat smell of burnt chips, & got a good nose full of it.
Decided to look closer, & found in the shadows of the two big heat-sinks, a thingy with half of it's black shell gone, showing... -

BATCH SCRIPT: How to search for fixed length filenames?
Hello guys, as you can see, there was no place to ask this question on bytes because there's no batch section.
Anyway, here goes.
I am having a hard time figuring out how to return only fixed length filenames that has been specified... like ????.exe, & would also like to know if there's a way to specify what not to include in the names, like _ . or any non-alphanumeric character.

The 'ORDER BY' function drastically slows the response time, but I agree.
The 'Category_Colum n' is different from the site's category dropdown box. If the user chooses 'All Categories' from the site's dropdown box, then I don't filter... The resulting query is plain (and fast) like the following:

Thanks again Rabbit,
I tried your suggestion...
however, it wouldn't work no matter how I re-wrote it with those statements. It did return...Code:SELECT pHASH FROM cu_info.wc_search WHERE CONVERT(pPostDate, DATETIME) BETWEEN DATE_SUB(NOW(), INTERVAL 700 DAY) AND NOW(); SELECT pHASH FROM cu_info.wc_search WHERE CONVERT(pPostDate, DATETIME) [B][U]NOT[/U][/B] BETWEEN DATE_SUB(NOW(), INTERVAL 700 DAY) AND NOW();

Hey Rabbit, Thanks for your reply.
Your solution looks correct, except that the DateTime format in my case is RFC 2822... eg: Sun, 08 May 2011 14:21:50 +0000, not "2011-06-04 07:9:22"
I've tried converting it on the fly, but I'm not very savy in MySQL, so not very knowledgeable of it's built in functions.
You see, the problem is, the database has over 40 million entries already, but the table that...Leave a comment:

Need to delete MySQL records from a table that are older than 700 days
Hello all,
I need to delete records from a table in a MySQL database that are more than 700 days old.

The date record looks like this... Sun, 08 May 2011 14:21:50 +0000.
