Formula needed

Hi all,

Anyone knows of a formula for the following ?

Input(All available) :
x, y coordinate
gradient/slope
distance

Output :
new x and y coordinate

So something like if we move along a straight line starting from a point, where do we end up

Thanks in advance,

I have a whole load of different XML schemas, need to generate some test XMLs.

Anybody know of a good free Tool?

USB drive not working with XP SP2

Hello,

With a new installation of Windows XP SP2,
I tried using a sarotech hdd enclosure(USB), and although the drive (Removable disk)
shows up in My Computer, exploring the drive, shows me nothing
(no files , nothing 0% capacity 0% used - although there is content)
With a PQI thumb drive, the same thing happens

some facts:
-Was working before i reinstalled(Windows XP SP1)
-PQI thumb drive works on my win2k laptop from work
-Have updated to latest motherboard drivers(nforce2)
-Have tried all usb slots
-Randomly, for the USB thumb drive, the contents will be shown momentarily, but after a refresh it goes blank again

The only similar problem i could find on google, is the drive letter for the removable disk not being assigned, which is not related to my problem i think.

What could be the problem?

Thanks in advance
