Trouble with an article_src_code
-
The src_code from following article Building an Office2K COM addin with VC++/ATL By Amit Dey [^] zapped my colleagues HKEY_CURRENT_USER key (98 Machine). Later looking into the source, the problem was found in one Addin.rgs resource file used. It was having the following entry without 'NoRemove' attribute !!!
HKCU { Software { Microsoft { Office { Outlook { Addins { 'OutlookAddin.Addin' { val FriendlyName = s 'Outlook Addin' val Description = s 'ATLCOM Outlook Addin' val LoadBehavior = d '00000003' val CommandLineSafe = d '00000000' } } } } } } }So can you suggest us, whom can he sue, The editors :) , or the author :)

If programmers starts backing up the machine before running the test applications, many of us will end up spending more time for backing up than f6r coding :) Daniel Turini wrote: the poor soul who still thinks that running Windows 98 on a development machine is saving money? Do you think all programmers are rich enough get server machines :D

Nah, it's all about VMWare. One word: Snapshots. I couldn't live without them.

And it has a good kernel, NTFS and some nice features like "System Restore", which lead us for your other question: suhredayan® wrote: If programmers starts backing up the machine before running the test applications, many of us will end up spending more time for backing up than f6r coding Using Windows XP System Restore would recover your machine in a snap. And no need for manually backing things up. Even Windows ME had a jurassic form of System Restore. BTW, if you schedule a "System State" backup every night on a Windows XP (and Win2k, too, IIRC), you'll be able to recover your registry with a simple COPY, even if you have System Restore disabled. Oh, and decent OSes have an uptime of at least a couple of weeks, so they can stay turned on at night with no problem at all. I see dead pixels Yes, even I am blogging now!

There is no spoon.A backup a day keeps the install away. I don't backup my entire machine - but I also don't complain if I hose it. suhredayan® wrote: Do you think all programmers are rich enough get server machines I know that the "few hundred bucks" are a lot of money in some places. over here, it makes no sense: the work time lost is to expensive. But then, if work time isn't the issue, setting up an automatic diskcopy at night shouldn't be either.
