Can anyone point me in the direction of a website with lists e.g. of countries, colours, animals etc which can be used when creating arrays. I have seen a few country lists in arrays but is there a site which has loads? It would save me, and probably quite a few other people, a lot of typing.
Thanks in advance

Your best bet is to simply take each item, one at a time, and google it. Wikipedia is a good source for lists, then you can quickly assemble them into whatever format you like.
For example, if you google 'list of sovereign states', you'll get the country list from Wikipedia. Copy and paste it, then with an excel grid or a little macro action, you can spruce it up to what you want.

About countries list , use this site: ip2nation.com
It has database of countries list with IP addresses.

This may be a question that is not suitable for stackoverflow, but I had no other better place to ask it. I was wondering if there are any known tools (non-commercial) that can be used to solve the homophone confusions such as these in a sentence?
it's vs its
you're vs your
I am new to NLP and I haven't used any of the known tools. Tried to search for these in google but nothing useful shows up. Are there any parts in NLTK or CoreNLP that cover this?
I have no experience with this topic but I found a how to PDF that may be of some use to you.
How to solve homophone problems
It's no complete solution, but LanguageTool has some rules for this. See the rule file and search for rulegroup id="IT_IS"(disclaimer: I'm the maintainer of LanguageTool). After the Deadline also uses a rule-based approach, only that it tries to avoid useless suggestions by filtering its suggestion against a large n-gram database.

I am using the microsoft.office.interop.excel msdn site to be able to learn how to manipulate excel using OLE. However it is very difficult to be able to navigate through these documentations. For a trivial example, the Application.LanguageSettings should have members of its own, but from the site it's impossible to be able to locate them (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/microsoft.office.interop.excel._application.languagesettings(v=office.14).ASPX).
Does anyone know of a better way to get this information? Is there another manual/reference? Or can one 'inspect' the object returned (for example Application.LanguageSettings returns an object, can we explore what its members are without actual documentation?). Thanks
and then you're sent to the Object iteself
theres nothing hard about it
There is an object browser that's built into VBA, under the View menu:

Search Box Logic based on user input:- [string1, string2, string3] where RESULT if all 3 strings are found > any 2 strings are found > any one string is found.
To perform custom search logic in Mongodb:-
a) Is it possible using mongoosejs? or
b) Do i write javascript logic ?
Are there mongoose plugins for search box logic?
The search is straightforward although note that real full-text style search requires some additional reading and is a separate challenge.
var query = MyModel.find({$or: [{name: string1},{name: string2},{name: string3}]});
Sorting based on how many matched is not something I know how to do within mongodb itself. I don't think it's possible but maybe someone else knows how. I think that you will have to do in your application javascript logic.

Does anyone know where I can get access to some good location data for towns / cities / counties etc for the UK or globally?
Hoping to use for auto-completing forms in a web app.
You can try OpenStreetMap. You can download geolocation data for the entire planet, or just for some areas.
You can also take a look at the open data portal of the UK.

Yes, I'd prefer to buy them instead of using "free" or "free" with some kind of weird license. Tried Google, but no luck and my fav RF graphics sites don't have any... :(
You're unlikely to find sets of tiles that are simultaneously online, exactly meet your needs and are purchasable for a fee.
I'd suggest going to one of the freelance graphics / design sites e.g. 99 designs and get the work done for a small commission. Depending on your game you will probably have custom requirements anyway, so getting custom tiles created is probably the best bet. This is how I'm planning to source the graphics and artwork for my next game.
Alternatively, you'd be surprised by how many good "free" tile sets you can find. But then you will be forced to stick to the graphic style and theme of the free tileset, and run the risk of looking very similar to other games using the same tileset.
You could pay someone to create them, perhaps at a site like vWorker/Rent A Coder.
