I knew it would end badly when I first met Chris in a Canberra alleyway and he said 'try some - it won't hurt you'..... - Christian Graus on Code Project outages A moment of silence please. A programmer's best friend has passed beyond that great exception in the sky.... - Mark Conger on "The coffee machine has died"

Here's a more fair fight, given that C++ is multiplatform and VB isn't: Visual Basic vs. Visual C++[^] Regards, Alvaro

Even saying all of that, check how many hits CP had vs CG. CG was more, but not by much and CG has been around a lot longer. So kudos to CP!

Is it just a hit counter, or is there some other logic in the thing? After all, it knows that Sun beats Microsoft[^]! "My child was Inmate of the Month at Mohave County Jail" - Bumper Sticker in Bullhead City, AZ

You are the intrepid one, always willing to leap into the fray! A serious character flaw, I might add, but entertaining. Said by Roger Wright about me.
