Still waiting for Microsoft to release > the source to ActiveX. WHAT?!!! You really DON'T know what you are talking about. I program ActiveX every day. Microsoft releases the "code" for their software every day. If you can't figure it out, that's your problem. The ActiveX family (DCOM, COM, ActiveX distibution, etc.) is some of the finest programming I've ever seen and it makes my life a lot easier as a programmer. I wish you MS haters would stop repeating what you've read or heard on CNN and think for yourselves. Besides, what are you doing in an MS newsgroup anyway? This is supposed to be where fellow programmers/administrators get together and help each other figure it out. MS haters, either get with it and learn this stuff, or get away from it and save us all the pain of having to rewrite billions of dollars worth of software because you lazy dorks keep getting in the way of progress. Oh yeah, have a great day... :-) -----== Posted via Deja News, The Leader in Internet Discussion ==----- http://www.dejanews.com/ Now offering spam-free web-based newsreading
