A Christchurch Delphi Users group would be great from my perspective, but
unfortunately I may not have a lot to contribute until I have learnt at
least the basics - which hopefully won't be to far away. I am a reasonably
quick learner and have programming knowledge, just not in any OO languages.
The way I (and a lot of others I imagine) learn quickest is to watch others,
and then go and play myself. So, yes I think a Chch User Group would be
great!
In regards to the different courses you mentioned, my biggest problem I need
a part time course rather than full time. The only place I found that offers
these are the polytech, and they are not running any this year. I have
ordered myself a copy of Marco Cantu's Mastering Delphi 5 book, and I plan
to sit down and work my way through. What I would be interested in is, if
there was anyone who would be willing to hire themselves out for an hour or
two at different times when I get stuck, please contact me.
Thanks to everyone who has replied to my initial email, it has been greatly
appreciated.
Regards, Glenn

Subject: Re: [DUG]: Where can I learn?
The Christchurch Delphi Users Group has been inactive for some time. I (and
others) used to run this. Do Christchurch people want to see it resurrected?
If so, contact me and we can sort something out.
Regarding learning Delphi, careerLink COLLEGE do a one year, full-time
Programming & Analysis course that incorporates Delphi among other
languages/environments.
Electec College do a similar one year course.
Other courses, some short-term are offered from time to time at Polytech.
You could get a few people together and have a custom-designed course taught
part-time. I have sometimes done this for various groups or organisations.
Contact me here or at careerLink COLLEGE (377-2364) and we can discuss
possibilities if you wish.
Other than that, the other suggestions regarding purchasing a good book,
Delphi, and putting in a bit of work is probably the best option.
