Question: how can you take an existing MFC SDI project and convert it to an MDI project? Answer: In devstudio go to tools --> Options --> Environment --> General. Once there select SDI, if you would like SDI, or unselect SDI if you would like MDI. Now close your project and re-open it. You will now have your pre-existing project in either SDI or MDI depending on what you chose. It takes less than a minute and you can switch back and forth as you wish.
Your goals as a programmer change as you learn new paradigms and as you master different languages. Depending on what you like programming it can be an end in and of itself. Their is so much to learn that you can make it your career pursuit. The bottom line is that no matter what career you choose the end game will always be changing -so look for something that has a valuable process and means *by your definition*. You don't have to know what you are going to do all of the time, but you do have to know what you like to do and what is meaningful for you. It boils down to what you value and why you want to be a programmer in the first place.
Is it benificial for the entire world to have universal access to computers and the internet? What about the affects on the many countries that have societies that function on a relatively low tech basis? If this were to become universalized could it not affect many cultures adversely? Perhaps hi-tech is not the "right" solution for everyone.
