Timezone Converter for UTC and others

I've swiped a lot of code examples over the years. I'm giving back in case anyone had a need for such a thing for themselves or to modify. I originally posted this on Reddit . I meant to post it here as well but forgot until today. This version has all the modifications I've made to it since the ori...

Re: Crappy Boggle Game

I was going to edit the original code in the original post, but decided to leave it just for comparison. I figured out a way to better randomize the letters based on the actual boggle game based on their dice configuration. Now it rolls each dice, and then randomly assigns that result to one of the ...

Crappy Boggle Game

I'm no expert by any means, but I was trying to come up with a fun way to show someone how to make a simple game in AHK. Originally it started out as little chunks of code, then later while playing an actual game of Boggle, i got the idea to turn that lesson into a working model and it was later ass...

GUI stopped working?

Hi All, I'm hoping someone might know a place to start troubleshooting a strange issue. I have a compiled app, gui and all that's worked for roughly the last 3 years. There have been no changes to the code, but there has been a change on the environment. After running the app on a newly deployed lap...

Re: Reminding new members to use code tags

I admit i havent read all 4 pages of this topic yet but, when I'm in the full editor and preview mode, i don't see a "CODE" button, instead i see a "</>" button. Additionally, I think it's an older crowd that is more familiar with Bulletin Board systems and their syntax. The older I get, the more i ...

Re: Simple Productivity/Interruption Tracker

Updates: I removed the radio button menu and replaced with a dropdown. This means you can have a much larger variety of things to track and not take up additional space. Added utilization of INI file to save settings. This way if others that don't use AHK but want to use the tracker, you can compile...

Oh, sure, I am willing to continue.
What would you like me to try next? I can also jump in Discord if that would be easier to communicate back & forth.

Re: Unable to edit or reply with update Topic is solved

The actual update wasn't the SQL function, that already existed in the original script which is currently a part of the original post. Even without making an actual edit, I will get the error simply previewing the existing post from the edit window. As an admin, I believe you should be able to repro...
