Rounding Time Unit To 15 Minutes
I am currently writing a program that records the number of hours worked on projects to the nearest 15 minutes.
The most common error that users are making is inputting
2hrs 15mins as 2:15 rather than the required 2:25
Has anyone got a routine that would round the minutes worked?

I must write a salary program for a factory owner who wants to purchase a time control unit so that his employees can pull their cards through this when they clock in and out.

I've seen a similar program - the PC and the time control are connected by serial ports, but the time control is not installed as hardware anywhere on the PC.
Calculating A Compound Unit Value To Its Unit Value(VB6-SQL)
This's my first post. I hope this would be welcomed.
I have a small question here. I have two tables 'Units' and 'Compound' units and some data has been provided here to make you guys a little clear about the question.
I want to make an SQL query which returns the basic unit of a compound unit.
FYI, here we have two tables 'Units' and 'CompoundUnits'
----- Table Name = Units --------
--------- Table Name = CompoundUnits ------------
UnitNameShortCut UnitMultiple
Dozen dz Pieces12
Cartoon is a compound unit.
According to the above data ..
Cartoon = 500 Box
Box = 100 Packet
Packet = 15 Dozen
Dozen = 12 Pieces
Pieces itself is a basic unit.
Now coming to question ...
Please do help me make an SQL Stored Procedure or a VB 6 Function in which when a Compound Unit (Eg. Cartoon) is passed, returns its value in basic unit(Pieces).

Adding Minutes To A Time
How can I add for example 7 mintutes to the current time, and have it go back to the top of the hour when it's over 60 minutes, and if it's 11:55:00 PM it'll give 12:02:00 AM. The seconds and time of day are crucial.
Is there a module or already some set code that will do this so I don't have to do this the long way I'm doing right now (cuting and slicing a current time).

Just Few Minutes Of Your Valuble Time Please...
I had used the OpenText method of workbook to open a text file, delimited with "|". The command runs like this
XlApp.WorkBooks.OpenText FName, xlMsDos, 1, Delimited, xlTextQualifierDoubleQuote, False, False, False, False, False,True, Chr(124), Array(Array(1,9),Array(2,1)...)
The problem is that the Last Parameter that is the FieldInfo is not a constant. With each file it will differ.
Please help me to put a string in the Array Place.

I need to compare to times. However, the second time needs to be greater than the first time by at least 9 minutes.

But, as you can guess, that didn't work.

Trying To Understand The Time In Hours. Minutes.....
I have this code:

60 supposed to me 1 hour, but for some reason its not, it 60 milliseconds, for the iCounter to be one hour it I should enter 240000.
whats the right timing formate using hour, minutes, second and when using the hour to be 60 min instead of using seconds or milliseconds.

Rounding, But As Time
im making an audio player... and what i need help with is,
i got the length of a track with the following
Dim haha As Double
haha = MediaPlayer1.Duration
haha = haha / 60
haha = Round(haha, 2)
i used the round function so i would be the two decimals as the seconds and the numbers before it are the minutes like
2.52 seconds
My problem is, if there is a song, that is lets say 3.20 seconds, haha gets the value of 2.80, this is wrong cause it should show 3.20 (minutes and seconds)
can anyone help pls?
Is There A Way I Can Time A DesignMode Session, To Revert Back To NORM, In 5 Minutes?
Is there away that I can execute a timer when I switch to the design mode and have the timer set for 5 minutes to revert back to the regular Mode? I'm going to have the macro attached to a tool bar button. I've written such a code before, but can't find it. I remember how to do most all of that, including switching back to normal mode, but I NEED THE CODE, to switch to Design Mode.. My way of getting back to norm, is not real pretty, to think about, but it works just fine. - As I said, I just need to know how to get in, with code. - It is fine with me, to switch to the design Mode, with the DesignMode tool bar button, if you know of a way to have a timed return to normal, that is triggered by that action. I know how to run a timer as a seperate action, that will revert me back, but the problem with that is, I might forget to trigger that proceedure, as I won't be forced to.
The resaon that I need this, is so when I make a quick code modification to a users workstation, I won't have the possibility of getting caught in a DOWN MODE, cued by me forgeting to switch back to the normal mode. - instructing my user's on how to, is not full proof, as a few tend to forget how, and end up loosing considerable time with their tasks. (stuck in a mode(ha, ha) of being too embarrassed to ask for help.

Surrounding A Unit
I'm continuing with the FSM / AI theme and am currently implementing "teams" into a very simple game, although there's not any user input as I'm just testing AI.
So, at the moment I am trying to code some sort of surround() function for use in the team class, that causes the given unit to be surrounded by the rest of the team. I've got pretty close, but something in my code is wrong!
Public Sub Surround(ID As Integer)
'surround the given unit
Dim Counter As Integer
Dim Angle As Single
Dim CurrentAngle As Single
Dim MoveToX As Single
Dim MoveToY As Single
Angle = DegreeToRadian(360) / (TeamCurrentSize - 1)
Dim i As Integer
Debug.Print "AidUnit for Team#" & TeamID & " -> Unit#" & AidUnit & " -> " & unit(AidUnit).Center(centX) & ", " & unit(AidUnit).Center(centY)
For i = 0 To TotalUnits
If i = ID Then
'the unit cannot surround itself!
GoTo NextLoop
End If
If unit(i).intTeam <> TeamID Then
'this unit is not on my team!
GoTo NextLoop
End If
CurrentAngle = RadianToDegree(Angle) * Counter
CurrentAngle = DegreeToRadian(CurrentAngle)
MoveToX = (unit(AidUnit).Center(centX)) + (Formation_Spacing) * Sin(CurrentAngle)
MoveToY = (unit(AidUnit).Center(centY)) + (Formation_Spacing) * Cos(CurrentAngle)
Debug.Print " Unit#" & i & " -> " & RadianToDegree(Angle) & " * " & Counter & " = " & RadianToDegree(CurrentAngle)
Debug.Print " Unit#" & i & " -> " & MoveToX & ", " & MoveToY
unit(i).DirectOrder MoveToX, MoveToY, unit(AidUnit).z
'done i hope
Counter = Counter + 1
End Sub
Now, currently this code works in a "sort of" way:
(the pink unit is the unit that is meant to be surrounded)
If anyone can see anything I might have missed in my code, I'd be grateful, as currently i cannot see why the units don't surround the unit!
I hope you understand how i (tried) to implement my solution, if not I will explain how, but probably tomorrow as I'm in rather a hurry :S
so, thanks to anyone who can help!
Unit Conversion
I'm currently writing a program to interface with the OPTO22 PLC. Not sure if anyone is familiar with this, but in order to do it they give you a driver called Otpocom.dll. So in order to use the driver the manufacturer has created a list of VB commands to talk directly to the controller. Specifically the sendrecvieve command is where i have a question. You have to specifically tell the controller what type of variable you are trying to read wether it be integer, float, string, etc. Well when i try to read a float from the controller by default it comes back in scientific notation. There are no parameters to say how you would liek the result formatted so i have to do some post formatting. Is there a command to convert directly from scientific notation into a simple floating point? Or am i gonna have to write the procedure myself.

Is My Unit Good?
I am trying to make my form the full width of the screen.
I am using the api call:
Public Declare Function GetSystemMetrics Lib "user32" (ByVal nIndex As Long) As Long
Public Const SM_CXSCREEN = 0
Public Const SM_CYSCREEN = 1
which is working correctly, returning 1024, but then when i set my form width to this, it is small.
I believe the problem is that the form width is of a different unit then pixel?? Here is the code I am using to set the width:
formName.Width = GetSystemMetrics(SM_CXSCREEN)
Am I correct that the units are wrong, and if so how do i convert?

ListView Unit Problems
I have two servers in my system which use the ListView control, im having a strange problem with the measurments. In one program the code sets up the list coloumns at the correct widths, the other program using the same code (as far as i can see) makes the coloumns far too wide, yet the size settings are the same!! Is there some way to set what unit of measurment it will use?
'Define the column headers

Unit For CommandButton Height.
Hi all,
Can anybody tell me what is the unit of measurement for the height of a commandbutton control and whatever is the unit,how do I convert this unit into pixels?I mean if I want the height of my button to be 25 pixels,how do I go about doing that?
Any help would be highly appreciated.
What Measurement Unit Does Visual Basic Use?
I apologize in advance for what must be a completely inane question, but what measurement unit does Visual Basic use for Height/Width/Position/etc. properties? It seems Greek to me, and I can't make heads or tails of how to properly convert it to the much more conventional "pixel."
P.S. As a side note, is there any way for a form to be created in a position relative to a currently existing form? (ie. if one had an "about" button that generated an about form, is it possible for it to be created in a position based on the parent form?)

From now to December 16th, Saab is offering car collectors around the world a unique opportunity to acquire models that have never been available for sale before. Most of them exist in only a few examples.
Among the 68 cars are two copies of the 2011 Saab 9-3 Cabriolet Independance Edition, which celebrated Saab's first year as an independent car manufacturer. The plan was to build 366 units, but only 38 ever made it out of the factory.
The company is also auctioning 18 of just 30 Saab 9-5 NEW SportCombis and 29 of 54 Saab 9-5 New Sedan models that were produced. Moreover, there are ten copies of the Saab 9-4X crossover utility vehicle including the car with chassis number 1 for the European market.
Finally, collectors can bid on one of the three existing Saab 9-3 SportCombis in Sky Blue, as well as the Saab 9-5 Aero V6 300hp automatic that was used by CEO Victor Muller.

Although the volume weighted average price (VWAP) will tell a trader how he or she did relative to the average price for the day, it won't say anything about market impact. As is the case with IS, average price performance can be improved at the expense of higher opportunity costs when some trades are left unfinished, so the use of limit prices makes it very difficult to interpret both implementation shortfall and VWAP performance.
"The trading speed, the effect of limit prices and extraneous market conditions must be taken into account to devise forward-looking strategies," says Waelbroeck. "Trading schedules and limit prices if used appropriately can enhance alpha but if used incorrectly can exacerbate trading costs."
Pipeline has come up with an advance in TCA that it says can decompose implementation shortfall into its root components. Those are short-term alpha loss, algorithmic impact, adverse selection, opportunistic savings and the tradeoff between the selected speed and impact prices.
Adverse selection refers to the problem where an algorithm delivers a worse average price than if you had simply participated with the market at a constant rate. This tends to happen when an algo doesn't get enough fills ahead of an adverse price move, or vice versa, when the algorithm speeds up just before the price moves in your favor. Opportunistic savings is the mirror image of adverse selection; an algorithm can anticipate an adverse price move and pick up liquidity before it happens, or vice versa, apply a maximum amount of trading to avoid moving too fast before the price improves. The adverse selection of one trader is the opportunistic savings of another; the trader with superior predictive technology will come out ahead.
Waelbroeck says that Pipeline's TCA framework builds subsets of trades that profile a particular trader or manager's trade arrivals and measures the number of basis points that are being gained or could be gained through decisions such as the choice of trading speed or limit prices, and do so separately for each trade profile.
"Armed with this kind of analysis the trading desk can separately assess the value added by the trader's decisions from the underlying quality of the algorithmic trading tools provided by each broker," says Waelbroeck. "The trader's strategy can then be customized to specific situations.
For example, for a particular portfolio manager, when competitive order flow in the first hour of a trade is predictive of a continuing trend in the coming weeks, the trader will want to accept blocks of liquidity when they appear. They also will avoid the use of limits, since these are more likely to lead to delays and opportunity costs. By contrast, for another portfolio manager the same competitive order flow environment might be associated with overshoot-and-reversion after the trade is done; in this case the use of limits is critical to avoid buying on peaks and delays are more likely to lead to better prices.

[Resolved] Disabling buddypress registration redirect
I want to use the default wordpress signup. I have googled the problem and found the answer to add "remove_action( 'bp_init', 'bp_core_wpsignup_redirect' );" to my theme's functions.php file. Even after doing this it still takes me to the buddypress registration page. I don't know what I am doing wrong but I'm sure that it's something simple. I am running the newest version of genesis with the agency child theme and the newest version of buddypress.

The most popular movies among NYTimes.com readers.

Really lovely film. Wish Angharad and Mr. Gruffydd had gotten together at the end…. Certainly timely today with all the efforts to destroy unions and worker's rights.
— Anita Ruthling Klaussen, Boston
March 28th, 20119:28 am
With the recent struggles of the public unions for teachers, janitors, and the like, ring today as loudly as they may have done back in 1941 when this wonderful gem of a film was released. I love everything about this film, especially the familial relationships and the sacrifices that are necessary to exist in a difficult world. Bravo to everyone involved! Apparently there was a scandal that it beat out Citizen Kane for Best Picture but when you compare the 2, there's no question in my mind what is the better picture.
— John, Brooklyn, NY
December 27th, 200911:03 am
this, like the majority of fords movies, is all heart. the naration draws you in, and the performances hold your emotions in tow. theres a lot to identify with if your a union man. we see corporate greed everywhere, families striving to keep theyre jobs, while still growng older, and young turks leaving the fold in hopes of greener pastures.its a movie that chocks youn up, makes you mad, and then proud. magnificent enertainment.

There's no question that babies exude sunshine and roses, and their moms and dads are all goddesses and saints.
But it's hard to argue that sometimes we don't want to put blinders on to block the glare from the sun and plug our noses to snuff out the stench of the roses, and our babies want to call social services because maybe we're not as goddess-like and saintly as we like to think we are.
And for those moments, there are Blunt Cards and Someecards. Here are 10 that sum up those moments — for babies and parents alike:

In a food processor or blender, working in batches, combine yellow tomatoes, onion, squash, bell pepper, garlic, carrot juice, vinegar, and oil. Pulse until finely pureed. Season with salt. Refrigerate until well chilled, at least 2 hours.
At serving time, halve, pit, and dice the avocado. Core and dice the red tomato. Serve soup in chilled bowls topped with avocado and tomato.
For the best color and flavor, choose deep yellow heirlooms and golden yellow squash for this take on gazpacho.
I used very soft tomatoes for this and I didn't have sherry wine vinegar so I used apple cider vinegar & white wine as a substitute. I would make this again - very refreshing for a summer starter.Reply

Won't Promoting Kriol Hinder English Usage?
We feel that the development of Belize Kriol, and awareness of Kriol as a language separate from English will help improve the proficiency in English of Creole children.
When Belizean Kriol-speaking children are told that Kriol is just bad English, then they will think that all they need to do to speak English is improve the way they speak Kriol. But as you can see from the examples given on these pages, English and Kriol have different grammatical structures.
When people learn another language, they tend to simply place words from the new language on the grammar that they already know. The following examples show typical mistakes made in English that follow good Kriol grammatical rules: (These examples were taken from standard 4 students in Belize City.)
As English sentences, what is wrong with the following phrases?
- I have four brother.
Number agreement: English requires that plural marking on the noun must agree with the adjective preceding the noun:
Example: I have four brother.
Number + Noun = Plural (no number agreement)
Kriol: Ah gat foe bredda.
Number + Noun = Plural (no number agreement)
English: I have four brothers.
Number + Noun + Plural
- Them girls going to market.
Number and Subject Verb Agreement: English requires the correct form of a helping verb (to be) before the main verb of the phrase to agree with the subject preceding the verb. Kriol does not change he verb to agree with the subject.
Example: Them girls going to market.
Kriol: Dehn-deh gyal gwine da maakit.
English: Those girls are going to the market.
Notice also that the English pronoun 'those' is a form that indicates third-person pronoun plurality and location. The Kriol form 'dehn-deh' also indicates third-person pronoun plurality and location. However, Creoles generally tend to think that Kriol 'dehn' is the same as English 'them', and do not consider what symantically happens when '-deh' is added and that English has a different form for this. Thus, in the incorrect example, there is no marking for location.
- We tell other people about it. (context tells us the tense is past)
English requires that all verbs be inflected for tense. Kriol has several ways to indicate that the context is past tense, but the verb is never inflected.
Example: We tell other people about it.
Kriol: Wi tell ada pipl bout it.
English: We told other people about it.
- They have many gangs in Belize.
Kriol uses a plural pronoun (dehn) as the subject of an inclusive verb in a passive construction, English uses a demonstrative pronoun with an existential verb:
Example: They have many gangs in Belize.
English: There are many gangs in Belize.

Am I too old to raise a child?
I'm 37 years old and pregnant, and some family and friends tell me I'm too old (all their children are already 6 to 12 years old). They say that when this child has finished school I'll be reaching retirement age and won't be able to enjoy life's little ups and downs with him or her. Please give me some advice -- their comments are really getting to me.

I'm 41, my husband is 47, and I'm 19 weeks pregnant. We have a 14 and 11 year old. You are as old as you feel.posted 04/25/2005 by a BabyCenter Member
Older Moms Rule! I am 41 and having my first, it is my husband?s third, both second marriages. We are so excited about our new life we could not be happier. There have been moments when I have wondered if I am too old for this, morning sickness, losing my waistline, big fat ankles but I am really happy that I waited. I am sure I am going to be a much better parent than I would have been if I would have had my child at a younger age. Don?t let other people talk you into being upset about being pregnant, remember negative vibes go a long way to setting your personal outlook.posted 04/25/2005 by a BabyCenter Member
No Wendy i don't think you are too old I'm 36 and would be 37 in August and i don't have any, but believe it I would really like to have one even if i meet 40.posted 04/25/2005 by a BabyCenter Member
People today are having babies older now. Don't listen to what the other people say.Enjoy every moment of pregnancy and that little baby.posted 04/25/2005 by a BabyCenter Member
Wendy, I really think you should distance yourself from these people that call themselves your friends and family if they cannot be an encouragement to you at a time like this. I am 37 and presently 16 weeks pregnant and I, my husband, other kids and my family are really looking forward to having this baby and we have infact named the baby BLESSED.posted 04/25/2005 by a BabyCenter Member
Those family members and "friends" that give you their advice should keep it to themselves. I am 40 and pregnant with my second child (my first is 2 1/2) and I couldn't be happier! I am enjoying every moment of motherhood and you should too!posted 04/25/2005 by sistammc
That is rude of your friends. A child needs love and compassion and encouragement throughout life not a young parent. My grandmother had my uncle when she was 42 and yes she was older than usual for all his firsts and life milestones but now she can enjoy his children (age 5 & 1) without worrying about anything else but them. The age of a parent should not matter, its the love and time they put into the relationship with the child. Shame on your friends for saying that!!posted 04/25/2005 by samjksmom
I am 45 and pregnant so to me you are very young! Everthing is relative (so to speak). Listen to yourself and be clear on who you are and what you want: Ask your self do I want the baby? If the answer is "yes", then you know you do not agree with their comments. One quick way to respond is, "I disagree and I am very happy to be having this baby (and I wish you could be also)" and change the subject quickly. If they bring it up again state the subject is off bounds. Good luck and please find people who support you to be around. They are out there. Most of my friends had their babies in their 40's.posted 04/25/2005 by a BabyCenter Member
I worked for a mother who just turned 41 and she has two children. She has a boy who is 19 months and newborn. I have to say that she has sooo much energy and no one would or could guess her real age.. I will be sooo proud of myself if I have half of the energy she has when my son is born.posted 04/25/2005 by Jamnjackie79
Unbelievable that your family and friends feel it necessary to say such awful things to you! What's wrong with them? I'm 36 and 6mths pregnant with my first child. Many of my friends also have had their first child around this age - one even gave birth to triplets at the age of 38 and none of these women are experiencing any problems enjoying an active life with their children. Your judgmental family and friends need to get with it and realize that in the 21st century, a woman is no longer past it after the age of 30! Unbelievable!!posted 04/25/2005 by ange17
