    Amen. I fleshed out over-the-top detection algorithms with 99.6% accuracy (wrt the 64% of previous one) and managed to squeeze its maximum 13 ms completion time in 4.5 ms. No one batted an eye. I made a bunch of 5-8 lines utility functions and "Woah! Amazing!".

      I thought your arsenal was your superpower. Arrogance is just part of your charm ;P :-D :laugh:

      M.D.V. ;) If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about? Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

        I'm surprised there isn't a free one here.

        Well, I just checked out "ReoGrid", and in a nutshell, it's crap. It was easy enough to get a spreadsheet control in a window, but after loading a file, the displayed data is, well, not displayed. A quick check with the debugger shows that the control is actually loaded with the intended file, and shows the correct number of columns and rows, but the display shows nothing, even if I highlight a range of cells. The search for a free spreadsheet control continues.

            SyncFusion has a free version of their stuff that doesn't appear to be time limited. I'll check that out.

              Yeah - I blasted him about my problem already because that's the only way I could find to contact him.

                I wrote a wizard app for one of our co-workers that merges two Excel spreadsheets by matching selected columns based on one or more matching criteria (this column value == that column value), and combining the selected columns into a single file. I essentially reduced a 2-5 day process (depending on the size of the two datasets) to no more than an hour. The reason it takes an hour is because the half-assed Telerik spreadsheet control/document code doesn't understand formulas very well, and also doesn't support Date column types, so the user has to manually modify the merged data to suit their ultimate needs. I would write an article, but the code relies on the Telerik WPF library, which is not free.

                Yeah I know this kind of feeling from my coworkers. It is great feeling. I am doing this kind of things, but I stick to VBA and all the tools are in an .xla file for the company.

                  People that don't live in front of a computer aren't primitive. They simply have different interests and therefore know different things. Thinking you're better than someone for knowing more than someone in *your* field isn't advanced - it's arrogant.

                    In what category do I place people that use obscure euphemisms when attempting to debase the inherent coherency of others in regards to cognitive acuity simply because they complement another's accomplishments?

                      It's also possible that your psychic powers are not quite as good as you imagined, and that you impugned me with malicious motives that were simply never present. I was merely making an on-topic literary allusion, but you went all white knight trying to defend people who were never attacked in the first place to make you feel better about yourself at my expense. I also object to your claim that Clarke's Three Laws are obscure: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clarke's\_three\_laws
