I want to learn programming accounting software in vb 6.0. Which book should I read for better achievement that teaches me everything step by step in advanced.
I myself started off with Vb6 a few lightyears back.Golden old days. Over the past years though, like almost everyone else, we have moved to vb.net and now c#.
If you are a beginner, sure you can still start with vb6, it is simple, easy to learn and then you can move on to more current technologies. However, in my opinion it will be better to start with either vb.net or c# directly. The reason being that most of the people are using these now, and lots of help is available. Whether you are looking for a job, or settingup your own company, vb.net ( and actually c# - they are verrrrry similar) would be a much better investment of time.
Rather than buying abook, you can also start with vb6 tutorials... see this link for absolute beginners
http://www.vb6.us/guides/visual-basic-6-beginners-guide
Wrox's books are pretty comprehensive, and yet beginner friendly. I'll provide you a link to the UK amazon for vb6 if you still want to go vb6 way, if you are not in the UK , you can search for it at a local bookstore/amazon
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Beginning-Visual-Basic-beginning-guides/dp/1861001053/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1364635699&sr=8-3
and as I said, why go vb6 way, when you will eventually end up using vb.net ( or c#). First get the free express edition of vb.net from microsoft here http://go.microsoft.com/?linkid=9816758
then this is a link to some great beginner tutorials for vb.net. get coding!!!

I have to schedule a conference, there is 6 class everyday and more than 10 lecturer,for 14days. some lecturer are available some days, some are not, some prefer some specific day or classess and some days they are off
i googled it so much but couldn't find good material to learn about it.
i want to learn it ground up, it means if i need to learn constrain programming it's okey for me, because i don't have any background about it.
i'm looking for learning material, book and any suggestion about this. someplace in stackoverflow i read genetic algorithm it's good for it but no one was sure about it.
because it's one of the most easy topic that i have to face, and i will face more hard solution in future, i have to learn from basic, new task from my manager and i have to face it.
i appreciate if you suggest any book, site, paper and sources to learn or share with me
OptaPlanner (open source, Java) is used for conference and course scheduling. The download contains the code of a complete course scheduling example called "curriculum course", which is also documented in the reference manual.
As for other sites, you might find the ITC2007 timetabling competition interesting.

I have a project that's in the design phase and looking at my options have decided on using Postgresql for the application backend because of licensing and features. I have searched around but I am unable to find any solid information on using Postgresql in Xcode or even with OSX applications. Could someone point me in the right direction any help would be greatly appreciated.
You have not given quite a lot of context.
On the application side there are quite a few pieces of software running under OS X that interface with PostgreSQL, for example the standard GUI pgAdmin.
But I believe you're more concerned about the developers perspective. Probably the most common way is to use the libpq library that comes with PostgreSQL. It is well documented and rather stable. Integration into your software project should be straightforward.
If you are looking for an Objective-C framework, you could try out BaseTen. Never used that one, though.
If you want more specific help, you have to ask more specific questions.

I have written code in c# and vb.net but now the requirement is vb6.Can i convert vb.net code to vb6.How to add namespace in vb6 System.Security.Cryptography
Quite apart from the fact that the language VB.NET is far more feature rich than VB6, the fact that you have developed in VB.NET means that you have made extensive use of the .NET class libraries (including System.Security.Cryptography that you give as an example). These are simply not available to VB6 code. There is no way to convert the code, you will have to start again.
If the company doesn't want the .NET Framework as you state, then you will have to either find some COM libraries that use the same functionality (that they are happy with you using), or you will have to roll your own (not advisable in the case of security functionality). Or you could find a different job...

Hi there: I was looking at a few videos, etc and I just cant help but wonder why Pex usage seems to be so low?
Are there any problems that are not obvious, or is it just a licence issue?
It's a very new tool and to work really well you need to use Code Contracts as well. It also catches a lot of issues like possible integer overflows that a lot of developers think they can just ignore. Pex is amazing and will take off eventually but it has a learning curve so it's going to take some time to percolate through the .Net ecosystem.
I've used it on a few new development projects and it has saved me two major bugs (not caught by normal unit tests) that would have taken at least a week to track down and fix normally plus a few smaller issues so I'm a big proponent of Pex. That said it takes a lot of work to get it producing good results on an existing code base of any size so how cost effective it is will need to be determined on a project by project basis.

At work I work closely with MS-Office. I have managed to generate some scripts that perform various tasks. While I can port functions to VBA with some difficulty, I do not fully understand the foundations of the VBA language.
Items for which I seek basic syntax and examples include: 'hello world' program, loops, flow control, variable declaration, variable type conversions, Objects (if possible), file/user input/output, when 'with' block can be used, and so on.
Could someone provide me with a link to a VBA tutorial, perhaps with the details of the above items?
MSDN: Developing Office Applications Using VBA
If you haven't taken a look at it already, you can learn a lot from Visual Basic help within Office. To access it open an Office program and press Alt+F11 to open the Visual Basic Editor. Then press F1 or navigate to Help -> Microsoft Visual Basic Help. Also, as Mitch mentioned, if you learn the basics of VB6 you can use the same syntax for VBA.
The versions of VBA post Office 2000 are almost identical to VB6. This MSDN site is a great place to start. The VB6 resource center might also be of use.
I think you will find this video tutorial pretty helpful:
http://developresource.weebly.com/10/post/2011/11/vba.html
And there are some other great stuffs you can find there so have a try :)
