Changes: - Added: "Load Game" button -- loads existing text files from the active folder for editing - Added: "Clear All" button -- wipes the slate clean (with an "Are you sure?" warning before doing so) Joe, you are well and truly a master. This is a genius interface and it works perfectly. I bow to your l33t skillz.  You wouldn't care to take a stab at rewriting the Feud editor, would you?  What we have is pretty good (and if Robert is still reading here, it's appreciated!), but I would love to see your interface applied to it. |

I am very impressed with the clue editor. When RC3 comes, this will be part of the zip file. Thanks so much for your contribution and if you decide to do this for Feud, that would we well received as far as I'm concerned. :-) Thanks, Joe.

Thanks to everyone for their kind words on the editor, esp. Todd and Chris. The gratitude means a lot to a newbie programmer like me ;D I'll take a crack at a new Feud editor. Once I have a screenshot, I'd post a new thread in the FF Presentation forum. (Grey, keep me in mind when you finish your WOF software ) Again, many thanks to everyone. Joe |

Make a copy foe me too. I'm a big Pyramid Fan. I got the CD-ROM version and Episodes of the Dick Clark & John Davidson version of the Pyramid. Please, make a copy for me.

Programming it all by your self?

Hi Joe Just quick question I wonder was this first attempt making editor for Todd Robinson presentation Software and Programming it all by your self? ;D This is my first attempt at an editor, although I did have to use some programming code I found posted on the Internet. I'm still new to programming. On another subject, enough with the tongue-in-cheek comments about hotchocolate's grammar. Everyone's made their point, and now it's just getting annoying. Joe |

Joe,
I just recently thought of something you should add to your Pyramid clue editor:
For the main game, add not the name of the subject that appears on the board (it's already present), but what the seven items have in common...i.e. "Describe these...".
Just like the questions and Fast Money answers in your Feud editor, this would also be used for reference only.
Also, is there a way to avoid using the 7-11/Mystery 7 when using your clue editor to set up for a $100,000 tournament game?

Thanks, jeffp. I would love to update the Pyramid editor per your suggestions. I was about to do just that. However... I ACCIDENTALLY OVERWROTE THE PYRAMID EDITOR FORM WHEN I WROTE THE FAMILY FEUD EDITOR!!!!  Unless a miracle occurs (i.e., I become less stupid), I may not update the Pyramid Editor for a while. Oh well, easy come, easy go. Sorry about that. Joe |

Could you possibly download the link you provided above and go from there? No, I still have the .exe file for the Pyramid editor. But I can't edit the code from an .exe file, only the .frm file (the Form) that Visual Basic uses to make the .exe file you have. And I saved the Feud form *over* the Pyramid form. So I'll have to start virtually from scratch to update the Pyramid editor (a lot of the Pyramid code still exists in the Feud editor). There goes another weekend!  Joe |

Boo for absent-minded stupidness.
Probably the easiest way to make sure it doesn't happen again is to print out the code for the editor (after each revision, labeling the revision number at the beginning of the code) and then you can rebuild from there.
Saved my behind when I lost the disk I put all my VB projects on.

Hi Joe
I am Just wondering how hard it is to work in visual basic 6 is it really hard or not hard at all to work in plus do get you program working very first time in visual basic 6
Because might try programming my own program one of these days.

I find VB6 one of the easier languages to learn, but it can be pretty tricky sometimes. Also keep in mind that I'm probably the *least* experienced programmer in this forum, and I don't know what I'm talking about half the time. ;D I am used to BASIC from hacking away at a Tandy Color Computer from Radio Shack as a kid in the '80s. Anyway, it's pretty easy to understand, and there's tons of VB6 info on the web and in books. If you want it, go for it! Joe |

I haven't programmed in BASIC since I was a kid when the Apple IIe was around and I was thinking about programming games again. |
