Let Us Honor Klaus

[Mahares]

Klaus has just celebrated 10 years as a member of B4X community. He has been the ultimate in elite members. He contributed and continues to contribute tremendously to the forum He has written detailed technical guides, booklets and answered thousands of questions. He contributed so much to writing classes, libraries and snippets. The list goes on and on. It is really hard to put in a short paragraph the immensity of his contributions. And yes, he never requested a penny for his wealth of knowledge or valuable time.

Perhaps, someone can open a fund for a period of time for willing forum members to contribute monetarily to pay for a vacation of a lifetime for Klaus, he is an avid winter sport enthusiast and winter is around the corner. It does not have to be related to skiing for that matter, but something of his choosing. Of course, he has to be receptive to the idea. I would love to contribute if someone can build a site to contribute.

Hi Mahares,
Thank you very much for this post and I really feel honored.
But, please don't open any fund.
In my signature there is no donation button and there will never be one.
All what I am doing in this forum is because I like it and for my pleasure.
If one time I wouldn't have pleasure anymore doing it I would stop.
I am a mechanical engineer, and I am retired, 10 years already.
So, I have time and the activity on this forum allows me to maintain my spirit and my English.
I began programing about 40 years ago as a hobby and it became a passion, it always was and still is, hobby and passion.
And when I try to find solutions for other users, I learn and get more experience.
Getting likes when users found my contribution helpfull, is enough for me.

Swiss people get 100 (minimum by law). So don't worry

Swiss people get 100

Which reminds me about an old joke:

Radio advertisement: "Drink beer and you'll live 100 years!"
Mathusalem: "100 years? What is it, a poison?"

Swiss people get 100

I really don't expect getting that old.

Then please decrease the timespan attribute:

Dim MyTimeSpan as Timespan
MyTimeSpan.Initialize("90")
MyTimeSPan.Enabled=True

Note: If you've got a split personality you must use

Dim NumberOfPersonalities as int = 2 'just set it to your status
Dim LS(NumberOfPersonalities) As Int = Array As Int(80, 90)
MyTimeSpan.Initialize2(LS)
