Hi Chan!

Hope everything is fine with you.

I just jumped in to give you my impressions.

I'm not that experienced in .NET, so you can guess I get errors too, all the time. Most of them, for not knowing the right way, or best practices of doing things. I've been developing systems for nearly 25 years now, so you can guess the many times I had to start with some new technology. What you are facing now, and that I'm facing too, is quite normal, it just takes time. Don't be so demanding on yourself.

As for the forum, I don't know if you've noticed, but I'm kind of a professional lurker... I mean, I read all the posts! I've seen your questions, and I've seen them getting answered, I myself have learned a few things with your posts...

For a start, I tend to keep things as simple as I can to accomplish what I need. This will build up some knowledge that will allow me to go deeper and more sophisticated in the near future. One thing I learned with a good friend of mine was to try not fighting the framework, and this is from the FoxPro days. This saves a lot of time in the beginning.

So, don't worry, we are all here learning together.

Cheers.

I am not sure of your experience with .NET, but different developers run into different issues depending on their overall experience with .NET when starting.  Many of your problems are very basic and other developers have run into as well.

I am confused on this point.  We pulled up all of your 23 posts as well as some emails early on and you have never had to wait more than 24 hours for a response (and that was over a weekend on those posts).  Most of your posts have been answered within hours, and some within minutes.  Also, many of your posts were answered on the weekend during our time off while we were at home.  We never leave any of our users posts unanswered.  There have been times when we have accidentally missed a post and our users will post another item on that thread just to remind us to look at it again.  But I did not see that with any of your posts.

I think this is more of a learning curve from my experience with your posts.  I think you could benefit by going through the tutorials and looking at the samples.

I will let some of our SF users answer this for you if they choose.

Hi,

If you are following this forum, you may found that I keep hitting errors while using SF.NET. I didn't see any other users here face my problems before. And most of my posted questions are not able to be solved till today.



As whom has more experience on .NET and SF.NET, do you think I have mis-used SF.NET? Or, do you all never need to do what I need to accomplish?



Please advice
