>Description: Pat Murtaugh couldn't leave his programmer's mind at the
>office. When the youth soccer team that he coaches, complained about
>everyone not getting equal playing time, Pat wrote a timer program to
>moniter each kid's time on the field.
>
>To get it running on an IPOD, he converted a Fox Pro prototype to C Sharp.
>Come to our April meeting to see how a simple C # program works, how it
>compares with VFP, and how it can be further developed. Pat's not going
>overpower us with a slide show filled with a million things that you've
>never seen before.
>
>He's going step by step through a thought process -- including missteps,
>improving on "cut and paste
>inheritance", and commentary comparing Fox with C Sharp. The second act of
>the meeting isn't decided yet. Make your bid to show us something. If it
>complements Pat's forray into the Dot Net world, good. If we shine a light
>on another corner of the programmer's puzzle, that's good too.
>
>Our after-meeting social sessions at Cavanaugh's on the 1st Floor of the
>Monadnock are a great chance
>for tall tales, hyperbole, couldas and shouldas, inking 6 figure contracts,
>venting frustration against
>large software companies, intentions to to attend far away conferences,
>poorly expressed algorithms, and
>visons of future glory.
>
>Next Meeting: April 13th 5:30, 53 W. Jackson. Suite 826.
>
>The dues checks have begun coming in! Send $60 to Datamark Corp 7161 N
>Cicero, Suite 205 Lincolnwood, IL 60712. Meetings are Free. If we have an
>out-of-town guest, we might ask for contributions from attendees who aren't
>paying members.
