PureBasic Forums - English

I went through something similar a while back. In the end I bought a laptop and did as much as I could on it in the living room as she watched T.V. I still spent quite a bit of time in another room on my normal PC, just not as much.

Well, I'm only half-way through but I think it's very well-written, informative and easy to read. It's just what someone new to PB (like myself) needs.

Your code worked dagcrack. Thank you very much!

Hi.

I have been looking at GetGadgetItemText() for most of the day but I've not been able to find a way, so you are saying I am missing something Trond? I'll look again, thanks.

Thanks dagcrack, I'll give that a try. No, I certainly wouldn't expect PB to have a function for everyones needs. I just ...

Hi.

Could anyone help me get started with using SQLite with PB please? I have not done any programming for some time but my boss has recently asked me to write a small programme for where I work. Once I can write a very basic programme I'll learn the rest through the documentation but I'd be very ...

Yes, that works ok. Thank you GedB.

Hi.
