SHBrowseForFolderI remember having the same problem, but intermittently depending on the installed System. If I remember correctly, this is a defect that has been fixed when installing IE 6.x Best Regards,

Bush and free-tradeYou seem to think that the US is the only country that imposes tarrifs on imported goods. Am I missing something here? Can't speak much for the Lumber industry, but the US Steel industry is in near collapse. Most major US based Steel Corporations have either filed for bankruptcy or are currently in the process. The US cannot afford to have all their steel products made in foreign countries, nor can any other industrialized nation. The facts are that this steel has been being dumped for years on our markets, and it is time something was done to correct it.

At least the US has a foreign policy and doesn't sit back like pacifists. If we didn't engage and give out the goodies, you others would be crying even more.

Sad State of EducationDepends what sort of English you are talking about?

Sad State of EducationDo what I do, home educate all your children. I believe it is an insult to your children to force them to attend a public school in the US. I do not accept the argument that you cannot afford to send your children to private schools or that both you and your wife must work, which prevents home schooling. I have lived all over this country, and with the possible exception of elementary grade Texas schools, they are all very substandard. They continually lower their teaching standards so that other unfortunates can keep up and make passing grades, which reduces the quality of teaching to other students who are prepared when they enter the school systems. The Texas school systems understand this and offer somewhat remedies for this. California is the absolute worst. This political correctness in this country is making me dammed angry thanks to those fuc*ing liberals!:mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad:

CP DownThe CP domain is about the most unstable of all sites that I ever visit. I usually have to hold my breath as to whether I can access the site in any reasonable time and more importantly post any kind of messages. I would think that they would look at an alternative host.

All your code are belong to us.Statement number 2 is very broad as to how to define "within your job capacity". In my personal experience, I was hired as a Control Engineer. I happened to develop a product that was 100% devoted to Control Engineering, but my job description did not read that I was required to develop xyz software. My notification to the employer that I was developing software related to the Control Industry on my own time - at my own expense, covered me on this. If you are a game developer working on a specific title of "Alien 3" and you decide to develop a game on your own time and expense, then my understanding was that if you notified your employer of this intent, then they are required to inform you that they will seek control of the finished product, otherwise... I have always been instructed to challenge the statement in the employee hiring document that states what you design/develop on your own time is legally owned by them. I know others that have challenged this and were able to get it removed from the employment contract. The problem is that most employees don't even realize it was in their hiring contract until they decide to do something. It is pretty standard stuff that some employers have no problem with you taking exception to it before hand.

All your code are belong to us.Those agreements do stand up in US courts if you are an employee being paid salary or an hourly wage. However, if you inform your employer that you are writing software that does not pertain to your job capacity and the software is written on a computer that is not owned by the company, and they do not challenge your notification, then you in effect retain the copyright to the development. It is best to let them know once, then keep the lid on it forever. If it is good enough to market, then leave it up to them to pursue any discovery and never let any other employee gain knowledge or view the product at any company owned site. This I speak from experience and consultation with legal entities back some 5-years ago.

DUNDAS, you pay for lifetimesupport but after one year, you can´t even get the patchesI have also use Stringray in the past (during the years of Scott Wingo), and the source code was so buggy or incomplete, we politely repackaged it and said "No Thanks". This was our first attempt into using 3rd party source and now completely stay away from it.
