5 Hours to debug
It just took me 5 hours to debug and determine why an application was failing....cause a missing closing parenthese on a Trim statement.
5 hours to find that!!!! So, how was your day!

The small things we always tend to overlook
 I started with ASP.Net yesterday, dont even want to get started on that. It took me half a day to configure my datalist to what I wanted, and then I realised i needed to use a datagrid. Man, i feel dumb after this week  Atleast its weekend!

I know what you mean. My boss just told me that he'd like for me to use .NET for our applications. Memnoch, since you mentioned you teach a .NET course, which book would you recommend? And, if you don't mind, which would you recommend C# or VB.NET? I guess I'll be posting some questions on the .NET forum while I get a good understanding on .NET

The ISBN# of the textbox I used to teach from is: 0-13-029363-6 "Visual Basic.NET How To Program"
C#, VB.NET doesn't matter, it's really only a syntax difference. If you are comfortable with the C language syntax then try C#. If you prefer the VB syntax, then VB.NET.

weird - missing parenthesis would generate compilation error as far as I know... at least in C#. yeah, I know those days too well - spent four hours last week because of very weird bug caused because the value of System.DateTime.MinValue is not consistent between different computers - it depends on the Regional Settings of each computer. I was quite sure it would be the same no matter what - so in the beginning I didn't even think in that direction. oh well, using .NET you learn every day...
I wish you all (and myself...) better week!

Yeah, unfortunately the code causing the problem was within an Active Report inside a VB 6.0 application.
And for some reason the report wasn't generating an error, it was just not displaying the data.

yep that's the worst case - finding the needle in the hay stash. reminds me of the first bug ever found - the computer didn't work, they had no green idea why it's not working... after hours of search they found bug (real bug!!) inside the computer itself...
