The question was whtether it was ever required. For Dan to change his position over to his personal use of Call, is just his way of shifting the conversation to substantiate the point he couldn't substantiate when he was staying on topic. -Scott

Dan S wrote: "I find it hard to see how you can be so > adamant about the superiority of VB.Net versus VBc..." That doesn't say anything about you advocating .Net in this thread.....let me post the entire statement..... "I find it hard to see how you can be so adamant about the superiority of VB.Net versus VBc when clearly you have little knowledge of VBc." That says nothing of any advocation. That tells you what opinion I have formed of you based on several of the side-threads that had developed in these two very long and pointless threads. That's it. Right or wrong, my opinion, just as you have formed of me, so, what are you going to do ? My opinion is that your a pompous a**, that only comes here to stir up trouble. Which is defined as one trait of a troll. I mean, come on, why are you here, to answer VBc questions ? Have you ? Really ? More to the point......Can you ?.... .....Oh wait...I see *1* here.....Subject: Re: MSXML2 And then you post out-of-context quotes, trying to pass them off as proof of some ill-formed interpretation that you have of statements I have made....more standard troll behavior. All this is neither here nor there, as I'm done with this thread.

When I look at my potahto from the other side it reminds me of a tomahto. If I look at it from the bottom, through a glass table, it reminds me of a full yard waste bag. Is that what you meant? PS: IMHO and all that good stuff. :)

Please show me EXACTLY where you wrote anything useful in this group, apart from an occasional little trifle. You are here as a troll, Scotty, part of the three headed Clark/Scott/McCarthy troll. The more we feed it, the more it enjoys its feast. Now be a good little troll and go play somewhere else. Mike |
