It would be best if discussions were held at the same place.
The archives are not intended to host discussions so the JB Forums would be the place.

Also, are you aware that files here can be updated?
There is no need to have several versions of the same code.

It looks like some progress is being made, I've seen a few conforms2 boards up today.

The company that owns the Conforms servers is pretty big.

Speeding up For/Next loop.

There is a another discussion about looping and it appears that it is faster to use random numbers to find a user input than a for/next loop.
This may be the case when looking for large numbers in large loops but loops can be pared down to smaller, and faster, chuncks.

It's kind of tough not having the forums up and running!

Hopefully others will drop by and see that the archives are running and they have a place to post questions.

I've seen the Conforums servers go down before but never for more than a few minutes.

Hopefully it's just that their power is down and not some sort of web attack.

Posting questions while the JB Forums are down.

At this time, visitors may post without registering.

I will move questions and answers posted here to the appropriate area of the JB Forums when they are back up and remove this area.

That's ok buddy!
Yes the servers appear to be down for both JB and LB forums.
I'm sure the folks at Conforums are busy fixing the problem and everything will be back to normal soon.
