  • What can I expect from a programming skills test at a job interview?

    I am going to a job interview and I was told that I would be given a 30 min test on my programming skills. They did not say if it is a paper and pencil test or on a computer.

    This is for a company that makes cost accounting/ revenue cycle software for hospitals.

    I am a new grad from college and do not know what to expect when I get there. It has been about a year since I had any real programming class. Has anyone had experienced with this? Is there something I should be concentrating on? The languages that I will be working with are VB6 and .Net.

  • In visual basic, How to you return to the original while loop when I am using a Try Catch to error check?

    I am reading a text file that has numbers. I am using a Try Catch to catch if one of the lines is not an Integer. I am not allowed to you an "Integer.TryParseInt". If it finds a non integer, it goes to an "InvalidCastException" and gives an message box stating the error. I need it to catch the error, give an error message,ignore the line, and return to the original while loop and finishes reading in the rest of the lines.

    I am sure it is something simple that I am missing.

    Thanks for any help.

    Here is the code I have so far:

    Private Sub Button2_Click(sender As System.Object, e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button2.Click

    Dim MyReader As StreamReader

    Dim Line As String

    Dim sum As Integer

    Try

    MyReader = File.OpenText(TextBox3.Text)

    Do Until MyReader.EndOfStream

    Line = MyReader.ReadLine()

    sum += CInt(Line)

    Loop

    Catch ex As FileNotFoundException

    MessageBox.Show("You entered: " & (TextBox3.Text) & " Could not find file! Make sure you entered it correctly)

    TextBox3.Clear()

    TextBox3.Focus()

    Catch ex2 As DirectoryNotFoundException

    MessageBox.Show("Could not find directory! Make sure you entered it correctly.")

    TextBox3.Clear()

    TextBox3.Focus()

    Catch ex3 As InvalidCastException

    MessageBox.Show("This line =" & (Line) & " and is not a number")

    Resume Next

    End Try

    Label6.Text = (sum)

    End Sub

  • Is it legal or even ethical for a landlord to secretly record allegedly unpaid late fees for seven years?

    I live in Alabama in a rental house. I have been living there for over seven years and have paid my rent on time most of the time. When I was late I always added the late fee to the rent check when I paid it. I did write on the check “Rent + late fee”, so that I can recall the late fee in the future. The landlord has said nothing to me about the alleged late fees at all, until I am trying to buy a house. I had the potential mortgage company (for the house I am trying to buy), call my landlord for my rental history. Now the landlord decides to hit me with alleged late fees (27 late fees at the cost of over $1300).

    I am looking for serous answers, hopefully from a real-estate lawyer that will take pity on me and give free advice.

  • How do you repair a Sharp Carousel microwave oven?

    When I press START on the microwave, the lights come on and the timer starts to count down. What is not working is the part that sends the microwaves into the cooking chamber and the carousel that turns the food.

    I have changed the fuse inside and it still didn't work. Maybe there are two fuses, but I cannot see a second one.

    Has anyone had the same problem or works on microwaves for a living? Please help me with this problem. I cannot afford to buy a new one this close to Christmas.

  • Is there a type of depression that makes you feel like you never have any fun?

    I try to do things that are fun, but I worry about the details of the event so much that, in the end I walk away feeling like I missed out on something. I get myself so uptight about it, that I don't realize I am having fun or had fun. I keep looking for the perfect moment that I can sit back and say, " this is a perfect".

    I have been diagnosed with depression in the passed, but have not taken any meds for it in years. I have always seen it as a mild problem. I do have bouts where I am depressed and do not know why.

    I am looking for a name of a disorder that I can further study.

  • I want to upgrade my processor on my computer.?

    I am currently using "AMD Athlon 64 x2 Dual Core Processor 3800+ 2.00 Ghz". I found a " AMD Athlon 64 X2 5800+ Brisbane 3.0GHz Socket AM2 89W Dual-Core Processor" on NewEgg. Is it possible to just switch them out, or am I missing a step? Maybe I am using the wrong processor to replace it with. Can anyone help me with this?

  • Why wont my computer burn dvds? It worked so well before.?

    I am using Windows DVD Maker. I have burned many movies to dvd with it. For some reason it has stopped working. I have deducted that my processor will start to run at 100% about when the dvd is 3% complete. Everything will go fine until the dvd is at about 99.9%. The computer ejects the disk and tells me that the process has failed. I know it has something to do with the processor running at 100% because it didn't do that before. Has anyone had this same problem and how do you fix it?
