GAH!

Geekdom

I'm having to work on an application I wrote years ago.

In .Net 1.0.

In VB.

Dear Lord, please send down some semicolons from heaven, please.

Yuck. At my last job, we called it dotSucks. But working on an ugly application you worked on years ago pales in comparison with working on an ugly application your manager "threw together", hoping you can actually make it work. That's been my life for the last month. I've also moved from .net 2.0 (at my last job) _back_ to .net 1.1... talk about pain! *I want generics back*

But yeah, VB.... ugh. Just looking at that code makes me want to scratch my eyes out.

Crude, but it'll get the job done:

Me.Editing = "VB"
Me.Screwed = TRUE

Do Until Me.Dead=TRUE

With Me.Spork
.Gouge Me.Eyeballs
.Remove Me.FrontalLobe
End With

Loop
