Here's another one that's rage inducing. When you open a solution on the getting started dialog you're left with a tooltip for the path that escapes visual studio and overlays everything on the monitor until the solution finishes loading. Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason? Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful? --Zachris Topelius Training a telescope on one’s own belly button will only reveal lint. You like that? You go right on staring at it. I prefer looking at galaxies. -- Sarah Hoyt

I have a certificate from Comodo which I use to sign my modules, so yes, I'm familiar with them. The agreement you're reading, which I didn't bother with because it's usually the same old, is more than likely a 'cover all' agreement which also covers their code signing portal used for Windows Mobile apps. You do get a downloadable certificate after you verify your identity (or that of your company).

Rotten Timing, Microsoft. Software Zen: delete this; Fold With Us![^]

There's some debate as to whether this is legitimate or not - regardless, MS have pulled the plug now. I downloaded a few bits and saved the keys, but I'm gonna wait to see how this plays out legally before I install anything. Dave BTW, in software, hope and pray is not a viable strategy.

You should be able to shrink app to: Y = GetSystemMetrics(SM_CYCAPTION)+GetSystemMetrics(SM_CYDLGFRAME); X = n*GetSystemMetrics(SM_CYDLGFRAME); Boyond that requires patching OnNcCalcSize

does anyone code on Win98 anymore? after hours trying to pinpoint the problem I found this: if I set the handle of the parent in CreateWindowEx() to that of a window created in a class it fails, setting the handle of a global parent works ok, so is this a known problem on 98? CreateWindowEx(....., CWinA::hWnd,...) fails CreateWindowEx(....., ghWnd,...) is ok and yes, CwinA::hWnd is a static public member of the class, so I'm at a loss as to the problem, I'm looking for any ideas here ppl :)
