You're probably right. I just felt a response to the expressed sentiment was in order. I'm trying to keep the thread emotion free and objective, because I'd like to learn from the note author's wisdom, but there doesn't appear to be much evidence of that.

But being this here's CodeProject, the most powerful forums in the world and would blow your head clean off, you've got to ask yourself one question, Do I feel lucky? Well do ya punk?

Ugh, my dentist wants me to have all 4 removed this year although they aren't causing me any pain. How much time should I allocate for recovery (per tooth)?

I had all 4 done at once and was back eating hogies in a day (which was stupid, I got food in a socket). I went to work the next day.
If none of your teeth are impacted, then it isn't bad at all. 2-5 days IMHO. No pain after the first day. About the worst thing that can happen is a dry socket. Then you just go see the dentist again and they will clean the socket and repack it.

Hmmm, my lower R is pretty badly impacted although I don't feel a darn thing. Maybe I should have it removed before my head explodes. Thanks for the encouraging prognosis.
From your usage of "hogie" I assumed you hail from Pennsylvania, but I see you're a resident of the Peach state. The reference to the edible object has also served to make me think of supper, although it's only 3:20pm and I've just consumed a delicious cafeteria cookie and little less than a gallon of coffee. But I'm rambling and shall cease and desist without further ado.
It's Friday...

OK. if i bring up Tools / Options in Outlook, it's a modal dialog, with tabs. if i bring up Tools / Customize, it's a modal dialog with tabs. in fact, it's damn hard to find a dialog in Outlook that's not modal.

Bill, you shouldn't post this kind of comments, if the class don't do what you want, do it yourself .
The code Project site is the best site on net regarding sharing of knowlegde between VC++ programmers, and the the people that share with us their code deserve our respect. Normally if a class don't do a certain feature that you like, why not asking politely to author if he can help , if not, post on the forums, normally you will get some kind of response.
Imagine that this article was not a well perfoming(4.41 average for 63 users)
article from Chris,but it's yours, you certanly don't liked if a post says that that your code is absolutely f***ing stupid, wouln't you ?
Grow up Bill, okay ?
Ah and sorry for my poor english ...

Bwhahahahahaha !!! I doubt this was Mr Sergio, only because it is an anonymous post, but all the same, this thread has been a good laugh. After Nishes comments about the rating system I think the original post proves that you judge the success of an article by how many like it, not how many don't. There is always going to be an idiot quotient, which will only rise as CP grows.

this article was rated a solid 4.9 for the first 2 years it was here. everyone loved it. it was happy. life was good in River City.
now it's a magnet for controversy, an argument attractor. it's been soiled, defiled, tarnished, besmirched, sullyied, smeared, stained and tainted MW; voted down for political reasons. it's good name ruined by the petty bickering of those who wish it harm.
and why? because it was too good, too considerate, too free? why?
oh my sweet SAPrefsDialog, what have i done? have i brought shame upon your good heart? have i ruined your kind soul? and for what? so that the ungrateful could use you in their mongrel applications, surround you with horrible UI, inefficient algorithms, poor design and careless use of bitmap buttons? alas, it is all my fault.
maybe i should delete it and post it under someone else's name.

Me too. On a positive note, a couple of people have made positive comments this morning, and I reckon they found out about the article through the main page, because of this little thread.

Chris,
Given the tone of this thread I just thought I'd add my congratulations on an excellent piece of work.
I recommended the use of SAPrefs to a customer of mine for our current project and I've recently emailed him some screen-shots of how it looks. Part of his reply is as follows:
"I absolutely love the preferences dialog. This new setup is really slick and very intuitive. In addition, it makes it much easier to add additional information or
preferences when the need arises."
Thought you might like this one
Keep up the good work and ignore the jerks

I guess the version of Outlook he has must be different than the copy you or I use, specially made for him by Bill Gates Himself.
i think he's talking out of the split between his butt cheeks
good work, utility works for me.

Didn't you realize he has a custom version of Outlook, that Bill Gates wrote especially for him.
don't you just hate it when people learn to speak from the crack between their butt cheeks before the mouth ???
good work
