it's possible to be the graphic for the Draw button. I will check if it's using an external file. Meantime find any small GIF and name it drawPencil2.gif and put it with parrot.exe, maybe that is the file it is missing. I wrote the prg. a bit quickly due to the hype surrounding Pirate. It's in C# Express, no Java involved. C# Express is free. The code I put is the entire program.

For the person who wants Indiana numbers (or for anyone) the Pirate prg. says to go back the last 15 drawings an... [ More ]

This is what my Pc gets when I click on the program (When I run it):

And when I click on Cancel:

I don't know any programming, but maybe it has to do with Java or with the Java Virtual Machine in some way(?).

Perhaps my Internet protections are making this happen in some way(?).

Or it might be something else.

No big deal anyway

I learned just enough about coding to get myself confused larry but I do remember reading somewhere that when this happens its because there are library files installed with visual studio.net that are needed to run some programs that are compiled with it and that they wont run outside the host computer unless visual studio is installed on the the other computer also. and this is a common problem especially with the express editons of vb.net and c#.net. Heres a shot of the error box Im getting

I'll tell you what, I will put the code here, being it's real short. All you have to do is make a new app in C# .net and draw 2 text boxes and a picture. Set it so clicking the picture calls the picture1_click subroutine. Call the big box hungryBox and the smaller one birdFeed . Scroll bars and multiline/cr on the big box. Maybe even you can understand it enough to port it to another language like VB. Exactly what file is it missing?

What it would be nice to have now, would be a Skips Counter .

The program downloads O.K.. but does not work, not on my system anyway, I do have the .net runtime.

I don't need it, but wanted to try it anyway.

I already have a digits frequency counter.

Ok slfiilppo;

Now I am kinda like what I see, but now how do I find what 10 numbers that I need to pick and choose from? I like playing the Pick 4 in indiana.... so any hints?

Happy new year!

Its missing a library file Larry. This happens a lot when I play with the express version of C++.net and vb.net. If those are installed on the host computer Im sure it will run just fine. I tried installing the newest version of the .net framework and still got a missing file error. Thanks for sharing though.

Yes, a stats calculator (have you tried it? I want to make sure the prg. downloads and runs ok) it can be used if you don't want to go to the Stats page or not able to or just to automate the process, or if you want to put a different number of drawings than whatever the Stats page uses or leave out midday or evening, etc. The Pirate program itself is a wheeling tool which divides the ranked field and picks from that, but it might be handy to have something that can generate the input string for...

sfilippo — Sat, 29 Dec 2007 10:58:18 GMT

I see, you have a statistics calculator.

I use the Statistics here at Lottery Post to arrange the digits.

As a standard member you can only see 5 of the 10 digits, BUT you can still arrange them from hot to cold and deduct what 5 digits are cold from there.

Your Pirate should have a Parrot... the prg. I provide http://members.aol.com/lparent674/parrot.exe <--here will generate a string based on the frequency of any list of numbers. Very simple program, wrote in less than 1 hour, but automates the algorithm. You will need the .net runtime available on microsoft.com but you might already have that on newer Windows. What you do in this prg. is copy (from text file, Notepad) OR enter directly just the numbers in the draw history (15 draws, or as many a... [ More ]

Good Looking-out sfilippo! I'll try pick 3 pirate and pick 4 pirate. Thanks

LckyLary — Sat, 29 Dec 2007 01:15:33 GMT

First test:

I put in 0123456789 in the P4 Pir8 and what do you know, one of the picks was 1379, the nj Pick 4 was 9-1-7-3.

Had I actually played that string using HHCC I would have won Box!

Those #s are not even sorted for hot/cold - How's that for a topper!!!

PS- Last 15 days is that whether it's both midday-evening or would you do 7 days for M/E

LckyLary — Fri, 28 Dec 2007 23:58:34 GMT

This program is only to combine the numbers you input, right? then it generates combinations based on that? 2 from the hot side and 2 from the cold side? You still have to supply the algorithm, in this case putting in the numbers in your order.. your prg. gives out (in the first example) 100 numbers, my prg. just enough to fit on one ticket, but I have not tested HHCC type patterns or with that many combinations. If you play 100 combinations (Pick 4 singles), as long as the # is 24-way it
