Hi Thomas,
You said;
If memory serves me correctly all you have to do is create a new bas file in Visual
Basic 6,
Yeah, however I do not know how to do that, never have done it and have never
seen anywhere how to do it. I have just seen .bas files in projects from other
people.
As far as
Hi Jim,
Yeah, there are many many ways to do the same thing. Some times its
not the best way to do something, but it works which is what counts.
As far as creating bas files its been so long since I've used VB 6 I'm
not sure I accurately remember how to do it myself. In Visual Basic
.net I just
Hi Thomas,
Yes sir, I am always amazed when I look at code from others myself. Maybe even
more so than you as I don't even know what it should look like. You know just
being self taught. Just for example with VB6 all of my code is in the .frm
file and there is also automatically a .vbp and
Hi Jim,
I bet. It sounds to me like you just put all your code directly into
the main form, the frm file, instead of breaking your games up into
reusable modules. Its actually quite easy to create reusable bas
files. If memory serves me correctly all you have to do is create a
new bas file in
Hi Thomas,
Yes Sir, I did put allot of work into creating the word list for my hangman
game. However I found it just as easy to have one large word list such as
apple, 3
nurse, 1
hospital, 2
Guess that the program that let me define each word could as just as easily
created 3 different word
Hi Jim,
Yeah, that works just as well. I hadn't thought about just adding a
delimitor and a number to identify the category. Just goes to show
there are are multiple ways to handle the same thing when programming.
It always amazes me when I look at another person's code and see that
they took a
Hi Thomas,
When I created my hangman game I started out with a text file that had 256
thousand words. I wrote a little program that would read a word, I would press
a key if the word was not a person, place or thing and the correct key to give
that word the label for my game for person,
Hi Jim,
Ouch! That sounds like a lot of work. I tried my hand at a Hangman
game myself a few years back and the more words you have the more
difficult it is to program hints. The way I handled that problem of
identifying the word as a person, place, or thing is simply by putting
them in separate
Hi Dark,
While I agree with you strictly speaking Ouija boards are marketed as
nothing more than a harmless board game by Hasbro Inc. Here in the USA
they are stocked on shelves in the toy isle along side games like
Monopoly, Trouble, Sorry, and other traditional board games. So from

Hi Tom.
As I said, I'm pretty agnostic on the hole spirits issue. I have no knolidge
either way, and I'm already far too familiar with the fact that scientific
theory is pretty much based on a set of opinions like anything else humans
create. So while I wouldn't discount people's experiences

Hi Dark,
Well, I think some history is in order here. When the Ouija Board was
created in the late 1800's it was created and sold strictly as a kids
toy. In other words a harmless game. However, mediums and other
spiritualists began buying them, using them in spiritual ceremonies,
etc and
Hi Phil,
Lol! That would be sort of funny. Adlibbing that way could render some
pretty interesting results. The only problem with that approach is
that a Ouija Board is suppose to answer questions posed by the person
playing the game.
Perhaps a better way to do it would be to have a list of
Hey, I do agree with both Thomas and Dark.
People have been fooling people for many of years on the issue of
spirits and hauntings and other stuff in that nature.
I myself do believe in the paranormal things.
Now to speak on the Ouija for the blind, the way someone could make a
accessible
Hi Tom.
I was obviously not aware of this, or maybe it's just something that is more
common in the Us than over here, but certainly I've only ever heard ouija
boards associated with contacting spirits of the dead. While I know people
can be more or less serious about this, and it can
Hi Thomas,
I always considered a Ouija board to be much like a seance. You know in a
seance people would sit around a table holding hands with a candle in the
center of the table and they with the help of a medium would try to communicate
with a spirit or the dead. Pretty much the same
Hi Jim,
That's quite normal. Most people do think of Ouija Boards as being
associated with spiritualism, ghost hunting, seances, etc because of
its close connection to modern day spiritualism. You can turn on just
about any television program about ghosts such as Hauntings on
Discovery or Ghost
Hi Dark,
Oh, like I just said to Jim that is a pretty universal view of Ouija
Boards. Its no wonder because weather we are talking about
documentaries, movies, or the run of the mill television show Ouija
Boards are often linked to spiritualism, ghost hunting, and/or
seances. However, despite the
Hi Michael,
Ah, all the words from a standard dictionary? No offense but that
would take forever to program since I've got a dictionary here with
50,000 words. Besides selecting words at random wouldn't work anyway.
There has to be some sort of artificial intelligence involved in
supplying
Hello, I was wondering if anyone might know where I can get a
accessible Ouija board?
I have tried one on the iPhone but it is not workable with Voice Over.
Thanks!

Hi Michael.
By ouija board, do you mean the spiritualist serimony with a glass intended
for contacting spirits of the dead? I wouldn't describe a ouija board as
exactly a ggame, nor something that really should be attempted by a computer
program, indeed if I were inclined to use such a thing
Hi Michael.
Which Ouija did you try?
Note as it was probably translated from Italian to English, I had to change
the tense of some of the following words to make it understandable:
Ouija Table
