    You forgot the sunshine :sunshine: :rolleyes: ;P :-D I actually am here longer than you, but still do not know why / when the :elephant: came into the room. I know what it means and so on, but it came in while I was travelling a lot and not so active in CP.

    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.

    :elephant: and :sunshine: are known as the "Michael Martin" rule. :D

      If you don't know the use for liquid nitrogen or what CListCtrl is for. If you can't remember why the elephant came into the room. Then you haven't been here very long.

      Just looked, very surprised to find I predate you. I joined to download some chunk of code from an article, then was largely inactive for a few years. And :pachyderm: and sunshine can be attributed to one Michael Martin, former member. One of two CPians I have met face to face (and by far the more entertaining of the two!) Cheers, Peter

          Three years and six months shorter than you. That's still a respectable 12 years and 10 months though :D I can't say I know what liquid nitrogen is for or when the :elephant:ing :elephant: came into the room though. Seems you forgot to mention our forgotten patron saint Salma Hayek (who undoubtedly knows all about CListCtrl) :D

            You young "seven-digit member number" users and you're new-fangled ideas! Your nostalgia isn't anywhere near as good as it was in the old days. :laugh: Your question reminded me of visiting a tiny* micro-brewery in Dresden some years ago. We asked him how long he had been brewing, to which he replied: "Since nine O'clock zis morning." "No, when did you start the brewery?" "Ja, nine O'clock." * It turned out to be one guy brewing in the kitchen of his flat.

              I certainly hope so. The Queen would be most upset if something bad happened to him. :-D

                  Yes. But not from you recently - until today. Not sure if you heard OriginalGriff's sad news - page down a couple of days.

                        It was voided when she attempted to speak Geordie, clearly stating her intent for me. I'm a bit worried because Antonio Banderas also attempted to speak Geordie, and while I'm flattered, he's not exactly my type.

                                          Scrotum? :rolleyes:

                                          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.
