20 Aug 09 Excel: How to search for multiple strings in a cell
I learned about this technique yesterday.
The problem is as follows: There is a cell that we wanted to find out if it contains at least one of the multiple strings (words or numbers) that we specified.
One real life application is like this. You are given a long list of item descriptions, and you wanted to find out if it contains some specific items such as “pressure cooker”, or “microwave”, etc.
How to do that? Hope you can find out by just looking at the attached picture.
Enjoy!!

18 Aug 09 VB.Net: MDI, Splitter and Splitcontainer

Some one even reported that the menu would get messed up even if you somewhat cheated the splitcontainer to make it take the child form.

09 Nov 08 Plasma vs LCD: Which is right for you?
MIssed a 50″ plasma TV on sale yesterday for $799 in Best Buy, damn! Some might say it is a 720P and a Plasma, I don’t think it would perform any worse than a 1080p LCD.
Below are some links on comparison of Plasma and LCD, as well as some buying guides.
