    You have been treated very nicely in the Lounge up till now. Lounge is not for programming questions. That's what it says at the top in Big Red font when you try to post a question here. Ask programming question in Questions and Answers Section of the site.Link here.[^]

      So the only area you are allowed to go to at all is the lounge? Are the forums here blocked? What about the Questions & Answers sections? Well, that's one tough set of restrictions you've got going on there.

                Lesson learned hopefully. There's a big hunk of text at the top in a very bold font telling you not to post programming questions here in the lounge. This is where we come to get away from programming, or in Dalek Dave's case, to talk to real programmers and not Excel monkeys ;) .

                    Right click on the file in explorer, select 'Properties' from the context menu and on the dialog that pops up select the most suitable looking button.

                          There's nothing sounds worse than a middle-aged English white man saying dude. If I ever was a dude, that probably passed over 20 years ago.

                                I don't know why, but I have always made a mental association between Marc Clifton and the Dude[^]. Even if Marc also probably passed the Dude time 20 years ago.

                                  Marc is not the "Dude". Marc is definitely "Da Man". Possibly even "The Daddy".

                                    I second "Da Man", sounds very good to me. Thanks for correcting my mental associations :thumbsup:
