What a silly thing to say.

I didn't look in the .NET groups. I was responding to one of your troll
posts in the Classic VB group. When I said that I had just been through your
posts here for the last three months I was referring to the Classic VB
newsgroup, where you very rarely post any helpful reponses to programming
questions and where almost all of your posts are those of a troll. My
response was copied to the VB.Net group (as many others have been) simply to
let them know you are still infesting the Classic VB group with your troll
activities.

I've no doubt that you have made numerous posts there. In fact I only
recently had to correct one of your answers in the VB.Net group in which you
incorrectly told the OP that there was no way to have an image as the
background of a VB.Net Textbox.

In fact as far as I am concerned the more posts you make to the .Net groups
the better. The more time you spend over there there the less time you will
have to infest the Classic VB group. Anyway, it won't bother me for a while
because I go away for a short holiday on Sunday night, but I'm sure there
will be lots of troll rubbish from you for me have to wade through when I
get back.

Have a nice day.

Mike

It's really great that you've corrected something that I didn't say. Keep
up the good work. And, practice your reading skills.

I know and that was the point of my last message. It's very clear what you
belive.

Perhaps, but since I'm working with proven facts and you are working with
personal opionions, I don't see the need.

Well, since it's obvious the neither of us is going to take the other's
advice. I'll just keep on doing wihat I know is right and be sure to just
ignore you in the future.

Good luck.

Jeeez, you still belive that comparing VB6 to dotnet would make me a better
VB6 programmer?
At the best I wouldn't know what you were talking about and ignore it. At
the worst I might try it only to get compiler errors.

Or is it the other way around, you might overestimating your teaching
skills.
