@Mooseman Go beyond the Impossible, and kick reason to the curb! That's how Team Gurren rolls

@Mooseman or even better.... you dinos are been extinct for quite a while. My little colorful ponies still manage to greet me every Saturday :P

@SPArchaeologist A few thousand years isn't all that long. But that doesn't change that talking ponies don't exist. Just like talking horses or talking dogs.

@nicael It'll reverse later... :p

@Mooseman nor were the dinosaurs featherless as the movies like to make them appear, but they still draw that way because "cool". Are you saying that your T-Rex can't be cool because it didn't exist with that green scaly skin but actually probably looked more like an angry, giant chicken?

furthermore, even that would just prove I am right. You said that the ponies don't exist, yet someone felt the urge to draw them and bring them to reality. When they did the same with your pterodactyl they had to actually change it because "no-one would like it if it was covered with feather"....

@SmokeDetector Kindly anyone fix that error, Thanks in advance.

@SPArchaeologist Giant chickens are still cool xD Although most dinosaurs were only the size of sheep...

@SPArchaeologist People didn't have cameras then, unfortunately. So yes, they had to be drawn. :p

@Mooseman explainxkcd.com/wiki/index.php/1527:_Humans

> As this runs counter to the widespread and long-held image of dinosaurs as dramatic reptiles, the public has been reluctant to accept this new discovery, especially as the addition of feathers often conjures up the image of a giant chicken.

> Had it been discovered that dinosaurs were in fact covered with 6-inch long razor tipped spikes, people may have accepted this immediately as it conforms to the stereotype of dinosaurs as killing machines. There have even been attempts to claim that the feathers did not exist

You have not declared any variables globally, and because of this, SummaryToolStripMenuItem_Click is unable to access them. You should be getting a blue line under the declarations that do not exist, like this: if we declare the variables globally as per se: the variables become global and ...

@cybermonkey that answer has obvious errors, did you post here so we can all downvote it?

@PeterJ you mean this?

nope :p

What errors? :)

I could've probably got the OP to use ByRef without declaring any global variables, but then I would have to explain how that works, and I don't feel it's something the OP's ready for yet.

@PeterJ maybe the error is that it has no errors

You've changed some data types from double to int for one. Plus if you wanted to give some hints for monetary amounts they probably should all be decimal.

2:59 PM

@PeterJ well yeah, but that's outside the scope of the question.

could do with fixing the declarations though

good point

Bart

btw, why the second screenshot? Why not code?

it had formatting issues, it refused to format as code

looked crappy when I formatted it as a code block

@PeterJ Fixed.

This appears to be fixed a while ago, if I'm getting this right? Here's an example. Also works if OP hasn't commented (but in this case no autocomplete, however manually entered name isn't stripped now) and if the post is the answer.

Am I getting it correct?

Q: How do I add a vertical scrollbar to a textbox?

some people really just downvote for the sake of it:

-2

Adapted from this question, my answer no longer applies there anymore so I created a new question for it. The textbox in my program does not have scrollbars or a scrollbar property. I don't know how to add code to it to make it scroll the textbox like normal.

'Not enough research' isn't a reason for downvoting as I self-answered the question from another question where the answer no longer applied.

Yes, it is. I typed it in when typing this comment. — T.J. Crowder 1 min ago

what? I saw @hichris123 checked it a while ago and it worked...

and I just gained another downvote, why?

@vaultah No, it's by-design so you can check the actual message number if you want to be sure Smokey took action on the right one.

unless some users in here seem to think a question link posted in here warrants an automatic downvote. if so, please think before you vote.

@nicael ^ It stripped the OP's name.

@cybermonkey "The textbox" what textbox? "in my code" what code? There's almost no info in the question.

vaultah

Thank you @ProgramFOX. I might have missed some of the newly added features (reading the wiki page now)

@hichris123 and why not the first time?...

Because I commented already?

@hichris123 Look at the question it was derived from, the answer isn't appropriate to that question anymore. I simply made a 'how do I add scrollbars to a textbox?' question and provided the answer from the other question. It's not supposed to refer to a specific problem.

..as stated in the question itself

@cybermonkey import that context from the other question

@Braiam I suppose I could copy & paste the initial question.

4:09 PM

@cybermonkey no, just the relevant parts

@Braiam this is the original:

I am using a theme from the web for my vb.net application and the textbox does not have scrollbars or a scrollbar property. The theme did come with a VScrollBar Control, but I don't know how to add code to it to make it scroll the textbox like normal. Can anyone help me?

It's a Windows Form. (WinForms)

was pretty funny on my original answer, the OP commented saying 'wrong answer, downvoted.', when they didn't even have the priviledges to downvote.

Pandya

Is it ok to recycle like this to this?

"I am using a theme from the web" an excerpt of this theme? "textbox does not have scrollbars or a scrollbar property" I don't know VB.net, but why it doesn't? limitations of the api?

this revision

stackoverflow.com/revisions/30580712/3

@Braiam that was the issue with the original question, and was the reason I moved my answer and created a new question for it

@Pandya yes, it is. The OP (of the question) seems to think that a copy wasn't enough on the internet

4:13 PM

turns out the OP was trying to use C++ and VB.NET at the same time

@nicael Maybe it's different for answerers?

Q: How do I add a VScrollBar to a textbox?

question deleted, answer readded: stackoverflow.com/questions/30580712/…

this is the question that should be DV'd:

I am using a theme from the web for my vb.net application and the textbox does not have scrollbars or a scrollbar property. The theme did come with a VScrollBar Control, but I don't know how to add code to it to make it scroll the textbox like normal. Can anyone help me? These are Custom Control...

vb.net winforms

@cybermonkey you know what would be cool, if you don't mention the other question at all, and instead put some example code of what you have up to the point where you need the scrollbar

Really both should be...

@hichris123 anyway, stripped from answers too if no comments on it; deleted my answer.

4:15 PM

The first question was actually better than your copy.

@hichris123 the first question is vague and too broad to be correctly answered

I am using a theme', what theme? 'theme did come with a VScrollBar Control' ??

IMHO the comments need to be cleaned since the OP obviously doesn't care about their question anymore.

@cybermonkey ... your question had absolutely no context.

@hichris123 :D

@hichris123 it's not supposed to be a 'question,; it's supposed to be a simple 'how do I do x?', and an answer from another question where the answer no longer meets the context of the question because OP didn't know how to program.

it's the exact same question the OP originally asked:

@cybermonkey Then your "non-question" isn't suitable for SO. ALL questions must be questions and fit the rules of SO. Canonicals are given some more leeway, but they still must describe a problem adequately enough that one understands the problem.
