i need someone who is a student and in the uk to help me with a problem, students can get access to FREE M$ software full versions with keys and everything but you need to prove or verify your student status. is there anyone willing to sign up for me (takes 10 mins) and share access.

would appreciate if anyone can

I do not think that it is free....

We give a discount but they still have to pay for the MS software..!

You got a link..?

It's also worth looking at the free web developer versions in the interim. Not sure if the support the likes of Linq etc but they certainly cover a lot.

yeah ive been using the express (free) versions but it gets frustrating trying to make an application and somethings wont work because the code aint supported in that version.

i wanted to try the full version to see if i can get to grips with it, im liking it so far. and if i do well ill buy the full retail version. i just did not want to spend £100 and then shelve it like other stuff lol

[Detector]

big thanks to BFG, got what i was after and saved me a fortune so thanks m8, appreciate what you done.

det.

[BFG]

More than happy to help, I always see you doing stuff for others so about time you got something back.

[Detector]

am liking it so far, the ultimate version seems a lot different to the other versions and the way the code is shown is a lot better.

this is something im working on at the minute and its at a very early stage so dont take the pish.

ive got the splash screen, login and main screen done. i just need to define all the buttons and actions. on the main screen only the exit button works so far.

can peeps have a look see if it loads up ok, NOTE: xp users might need to install .net 4.0 to run this. im hoping it runs on vista and windows 7 ok.

the username is: test
and pass: test2

can you check the icon for the program shows ok and the splash screen graphics as well.

thanks

Its telling my to install .net framework. I`m on win7premium with sp1

[BFG]

Same here on Win 7 Ultimate.

@bfg is there a way to include the .net runtimes with a program build so when it installs or is run there would not be a need for the full .net4 install m8?

[Welsh Pete]

Installed .net v4 in 7 home premium and now the splash screen and login box appear...looks good.

Agreed...this took quite a while
