LEFT$ is missing. MID is there, but not LEFT. It may have
another name. How can basic not have LEFT?[Sept. 2005: It is there but
hidden]
|
| |
Unload Me does not work. The new syntax is ME.UNLOAD()
|
| |
DoEvents is missing. To use it you need to say
Application.DoEvents [Sept 2005: Some people say that you should not use
this anyway.]
|
| |
VERY SLOW INSTALL at about 2-3 hours. Sure that was for the
entire Visual Studio, but this is Bloatware. [Sept 2005. It is a lot faster
if you copy it to HDD first]
|
| |
Poor Online Help - I think it is all there, but navigation is
not as easy as it was
|
| |
Weird User Interface - The user interface is hard to get used
to. I think this is a downgrade. [Sept 2005: You get used to it]
|
| |
Streams for Networking are good, but I cannot find how to get
the Local and Remote IP addresses of a TCP/IP stream
|
| |
Poor Physical Documentation in the form of a book that would be
good if you know what you are doing, Posters that are good if you are
re-wallpapering a house, and some particularly poor advertising material.
This software was not cheap. It would have been good to have some
documentation
|
| |
Unstable Compiler - I have had VB.NET crash a few times.
|
| |
Weird Code that gets generated automatically. This might make it
easier to do some more powerful things, but it does make it harder for
people to learn the language
|
| |
Task List looks interesting, but I cannot yet work out how to
add to it, other than by error
|
| |
Version Numbers are screwed up. I cannot work out how to even
set them.
|
| |
ABS is now called MATH.ABS
|
| |
Debug.print is now Debug.Writeline
|
| |
SGN to return the sign of a number is now MATH.SIGN
|
| |
Control Arrays no longer exist |
I have also been playing with WWW services. I had an issue with ASP 1.1 not
running. The solution was
regsvr32
C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v1.1.4322\aspnet_isapi.dll
