I'm sure some folks have reasons for hiding their identities. I don't really care that much.

In any event, I don't think you understood the CompuServe reference. It was back when Microsoft
shuttered their forums and started their NNTP newsgroups in 1996. CompuServe forums began to die off
in the late 90s as a result of everyone moving to the Internet. I expect Usenet is headed the same
direction, although a bit more slowly, with more of a focus on web sites and forums.

I hope you're not blaming me for that. ;-)

Simple, if one out of five stay away makes no difference. I don't think I've
seen any VB6'ers argue with each other over .nxt issues.

Neither do I, ignoring them takes the fun out of it.

That was the point. They find other things to snipe about. ;-)

Besides, who is a VB6'er anyway? Is that anyone who doesn't use .NET? There are a number of people
here who do use .NET.

I spent probably 5 years where I was writting all new stuff in C#, but
I still was supporting - and occasionaly enhancing my older VB6
software.

Lot's of people overlapp.

I guess a VB6'er is one who doesn't reply to .nxt questions, or push how
'easy' this or that is in... in this group. ;)
