Making editors for cricket games

--------

This is to tell you that i have completed the text editor with all commands like open, save etc. and its very short and simple, so i can post the tutorial if somebody wants it :)
 
Some important things -

Filestream

We have used it quite a lot of times before in programs. Remember the dim fs as filestream command ?

Filestream is basically a method to open / create / delete a file.

Filestream is closely related to binary writer / reader, which we have used before. There is another part which is closely related - Streamreader/writer.
These are used to read / write text. We can either do it line by line or whole text all together.

Events
Events are occasions which happen in a program, and you can code what the program should do in such a situation. Like we used to double click a button, which took us to the code. That tells the program that in the event of the clicking of the button, do what we are writing. There are many more events, like the loading of the program, closing etc.

vbnullstring
It is identified with a string of length zero, that is, nothing. The name is self explanatory though.

We'll soon start off with the program. These were some basics which were very essential even outside the program. Hope this helps. If i missed out anything i'll explain during the program .

Cheers

Sorry to drag this up again, but I thought I would have a go at some of the tutorials. Here is my result from the scorecard one. Thanks for these btw Sid and Colin.

 
congrats on making that one. Enjoy some reps. From my experience I would recommend you to visit http://msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio/express/beginner and visit the windows development section and straight away jump to Colin's Multiple abilities changer Part 1. And to make editors you will also need to get used to hex editing.

Thanks. That site looks very useful for a beginner and will make full use of it. Only thing, can't actually find Colin's multiple abilities changer, have searched the site as well for it. Cheers for the help HP and will delve into hex editing as well.
 
It's linked in the first post.
To be honest HPF should probably be doing the tutorials by now as he's probably a much better coder than me!

I would really be interested. Though I would have to try a few easier ones before I get to that level.
