ADODB.Stream doesn't exist in my Visual Basic 6. . I searched everywhere in the objects browser. Is there any method or installation so that i could provide it???
thanks guys

Go to Projects>References>Microsoft ActiveX Data Objects 2.8 Library.
Then go to form and type the code.
It should come up as Intellisense.

You probably are looking for "ADODB" when the library isn't called that at all. Normal language usage would just call this "ADO" but the Web is full of cargo-culters. Why there is an "ADODB" tag here at all escapes me.
Look for a version of "Microsoft ActiveX Data Objects." Usually 2.5 is a reasonable choice unless you have good reasons to target a new version of the interface - they all point to the same DLL.
This is a system library used from all kinds of languages. It has nothing directly to do with VB6, and is part of Windows now (and has been for well over a decade).

I am trying to build jpeg_gpu, and the current Visual Studio error is "Cannot open 'GL/glcorearb.h' ".
I can find the file 'glcorearb.h' online at khronos.org, but I'm not entirely sure if I am supposed to just fetch this one file, or if it's supposed to be installed as part of some other library. It doesn't seem to come as part of GLFW or GLEW.
What is the most sensible way to obtain glcorearb.h? On its own, or as part of a larger library?
If it should be downloaded on its own, where is the most sensible place for it to live on a Windows machine for Visual Studio to find?
Khronos is the official group for OpenGL matters. They publish the headers.
People at GLFW, GLEW, VS, or whatever, download the headers and incorporate in their code. Sometimes they do some small changes, mainly for 32/64 bit types or compiler adjustments.
If you compare glext.h and glcorearb.h you will see that the later doesn't include any stuff for OGL before 3.2, while the glext.h contains all. So, general libs (like GLEW) will provide and use glext.h instead of glcorearb.h.
If your code requires glcorearb.h then just fetch it from Khronos and put it in the same folder where glext.h is.

I know how to make the application read text and say things using VBScript files in Delphi, but I would please like to know how can I let the application listen to commands and respond to it. Like an Artificial Intelligent system which can use the basic windows commands, but from my Delphi application instead of the original Windows Voice Recognition.
You can do everything in Delphi without resorting to any VBScript at all.
Firstly, I'd recommend you read up on the concepts and gain yourself a good grounding in the principles. Once you have a good understanding of the concepts you can utilise the Microsoft Speech API component by importing its Type Library into your project.
Brian Long wrote an excellent article on the speech API which is available with source code on EDN and can be found here

That title may be a bit confusing, so let me elaborate. I want to know what the code is behind the choice command. There is not really much reason other than curiosity and the fact that it might help me one day. I've searched everywhere but can't find it.
I don't know much about open source projects and the like, but may it be because Windows doesn't want people to know (or for it to be easily accessible)?
Any information will be appreciated.
Windows is not open source. The code for any Windows command-line utilities is not routinely released. This has nothing to do with Microsoft especially not wanting you to know how choice in particular is implemented!
That said, it looks to be very straight-forward. Implementation would be a dozen lines or so at most.. what part of it is giving you trouble?
As Mahmoud Al-Qudsi pointed out, Windows is not open source. FreeDOS however is, and the choice command is available here.

I was planning on learning a way to create my own programming language and I wanted to know what language to write a compiler with. C? C++?
Windows Vista and newer come with the .NET Framework installed by default. That in turn already provides a compiler for the .NET languages (most notably C# and VB.NET). It's the only provided language you could possibly write an efficient compiler in. Other languages are VBScript and JScript (via windows Scripting Host) and batch files, so nothing you'd really want to implement more complicated stuff in.
Depending on the complexity of the language you want to create, a C++ implementation may provide better performance, though. No offense, but you don't quite make the impression that you really know how to implement a compiler for a new language. Greg Hewgill's link should give you some starting points there. The thing is, creating a new (formal) language is anything but a trivial task. Yes, the tools to do it are free, and so is the knowledge. But you should really already have a solid understanding of the programming language you want to write the compiler or interpreter in before even attempting to do it.
I suggest you use C#; DLR is great for this purpose.

In our company we need a project handler so we decided to write our own.
We use CMake and bazaar and we still don't know if to store the informations of the
projects in XML format or in a database.
We are locked at this point: we would like to use as less languages/tools as possible
but we cannot find a way to interface CMake with XML files or databases.
An idea could be Python but it would be really annoying to use a new language just for an interface. We've seen that there's a Python framework (Waf) but we have already used CMake for all our projects and it would take a lot of time to convert all.
We work with Ubuntu and Windows.
Suggestions ?
thanks in advance
Rather than make your own tool, use an off-the-shelf product like something from the Jira suite, or BuildMaster. Many of these have great integration with most build software and don't require you to write and maintain your own stack just to manage projects.
Focus your developer time on solving your business problems, not on reinventing the wheel. Their time is MUCH more valuable than the cost of using a ready-made solution.
