Code:

I tried to do quick reply and when I click the button I get a message box it says you must select one of the icons up above to install quick reply for this message. I am all new to this forum. Maybe you tell me how to do quick replies or tell me what I am doing wrong.

Thanks for your help. I am sorry we got off on a bad start. I feel not too good about it. Being from Texas like I am, you know that is really not our way. We Texans are an open and friendly bunch which is the Texas way, as I am sure you know. But anyway thanks for your help it is appreciated.

Pfff, you can say that again. Once of the worst I've had here, if not *the* worst ;-)

I was wondering on SQL developer's edition do you need to install a service pack for windows 7 before you install the SQL Server developer's edition first?

Not that I know for recent versions of SQL Server. Just try the installer and see what it tells you...

I thought that in Classic ASP you stored the session state in the web server's memory not in cookies on individual computers. At least now that I think back on everything that is what was taught in school many years ago. I just looked back on one of my old text books from school that I had put away in storage and had forgotten about. But you say differently. I am confused. Maybe I was taught wrong in school many years ago.
Not that this is a Classic ASP forum here but I am trying to uncloud my mind on all of this. It will help me understand better things for .NET 4.0. Thanks for your help in regards to this matter.

Take another look at my first answer

In Classic ASP, Session state was managed with cookies as well. The server keeps track of the data, associated with a client side cookie.

The data is stored in the server's memory. However, since http is stateless, the server needs a way to keep track of a user between visits. And to do that, it uses cookies. In classic Asp this was your only option, and in .net you an also do it by appending the id to the URL. less secure, so you shouldn't use it if you don't have to.
