I think I found a bug... but not sure.

So lately, I have been working with opening up files as binary then searching for specific information by hex. I came across something unusual and wanted to get addition opinions.

If I run this code in Windows, this statement is true. If I run the same code on a Mac, the statement is false.

Re: Getting the pixel color of X,Y on an image

I am very appreciative with how fast you both got back to me and I will take some time looking at your example code and trying to implement.

I will keep you both posted with how I make out.

Re: dgVScroll & dgHScroll of a datagrid

Re: Date and Time Picker Control

Ironically, I have been looking for the same thing as xor.

I started to play around with the date time picker on BvG's web site and modified it.

All credit of the date time picker goes to BvG. :)
