So you are are an MVP of the REAL Visual Basic? What do they call MVPs of what Mike calls 'the imposter' ? (only decent answers please chaps!)

He's still doing his Trix Rabbit impersonation, I'm afraid. Paul exists here solely to impart confusion on occassional visitors. For example, he's almost always "sarcastic" so saying so in this context is meant to confuse by implying that he didn't mean what he said. Au contraire! He very much meant it, but was just playing around (with people's minds). Pay no attention to him, other than to realize his only purpose is to further the goals of Microsoft at the expense of their customers. -- ..NET: It's About Trust! http://vfred.mvps.org

BTW, I've just been reading VB Express for Dummies. On *nearly every page* the author is saying what a terrible mistake Microsoft made when they ditched Vb, how C-centric people have destroyed the laguage and written inexplicable help messages, and how it hardly helps to have stepped back to Vb Express in the hope of retrieving the situation. I discovered by accident that an acquantaince of mine here in Aust. is very closely related to a VP of Microsoft. I am hopeful of getting a message directly to Bill imploring him -- even at this late stage -- to unravel this disaster. I assume all previous pleas have never reached him and have been diverted to the team of (or course slef-inetrested) destroyers. I wonder what my chances are?
