I'm writing the next installment in my article series on relationship oriented programming (no link included because this is NOT a plug for my article) and I REALLY want to be able to use the DevExpress grid control because it works so much nicer with a DataSet - the .NET grid control sucks, for example, not being able to drill down into child records - everything I've seen googling for this has examples of using two or more separate data grids, WTF?
So, any objections?
What say you, Chris? CPians?

There is a trial version so if you can make your article work with that, I reckon it should be allowed. But what would I know, I'm banned from coding.

That's my thinking. Still, people might resent installing DevExpress. And then there's the issue of distributing the DLL's so at least the EXE can run. I should ask DevExpress.

I don't know if they still do (and am too lazy to check on your behalf  ) but they used to do a free controls suite. If they still do and your code will work with that then I would suggest that this would be the answer.

Last time I checked the GridControl wasn't included in the free control suite 
It's an OO world.
public class Naerling : Lazy<Person>{
public void DoWork(){ throw new NotImplementedException(); }

Your article is more on content as opposed to how the content is displayed therefore I'd say
it would be your choice.

Don't agree with that Mike.
You or I might be able to adjust but a noob cut'n'paster probably wouldn't be able to.

It's the concept you're teaching not the UI. This was a trick question anyway cause there is
no right answer. Some will gleen from the content and some want a package they can just, as you
cut'n'paste. Guess I'm one of them that former.

Or make the DataGridView so that it can display child rows/tables. That would be a nice article on itself (and I always wondered how DevExpress does it)

public void DoWork(){ throw new NotImplementedException(); }

I actually accomplished this once. It was not quite as fancy as theirs but it got the job done. My issue was that I couldn't make it work right past one level relationship ie...
parent -> child was fine
parent -> child -> child didnt do as well.

As a random reader I wouldn't install any additional libraries, in order to compile and execute sample code, but if article is good enough, I don't mind that.

It is just going to limit your audience to the subset who are willing to install the 3rd party tools. Personally, unless there was a really compelling reason, I would not download your article. Even getting the freebie controls usually puts you into some marketing gits database and I have enough crap installed on my machine as is!

I often receive email to my Gmail account from my own email id. Gmail shows the sender as "me" and the sender's email id is my exact email address. They usually pertain to cheap drugs or cheap Rolex watches, etc. I usually do not care about it but recently I have started worrying about if it possible for someone to use my email id to send an email to someone else? (without my password, of course. I know anyone can do it if they have my password)

Some years back, after a colleague and I enabled our software to send email, we had endless minutes of fun sending each other email from "George@WhiteHouse.gov" (or some such).

with code at least, its very easy to send an email that shows any "from" address I wish. Password does not matter the least bit.

As others have already suggested, spoofing an email address is very easy.

Very easy - my son was expecting a letter from Santa a couple of years back that never showed so I sent him an email from santa@northpole.com. All was well again

Santa has joined the 21st century n started emailing huh...

I received a similar letter from the North Pole, myself.
It was from a Mr. Elf who had come into a lot of money and, finding me not naught, but nice, knew he could trust me to help get the money out of the Frozen Gulag, and in return, would give me 12% of his new-found fortune.

You can send an e-mail 'From' any address, but if the from field doesn't match the actual sender e-mail clients and providers generally mark them as spam.

E-mail server, not client... and that's only true for the big ones that are common. Companies and people host their own email, so it's hard to match a name to an IP address, that's why spam gets through filters all the time.

Wouldn't the simplest way to tell if they are spoofing your address or actually using your account be to check the 'sent' (or whatever your provider calls it) box on your account? After first changing your password.

The emails are probably not sent from his(Google’s) web server so they won’t show in the sent folder.
And you’re right, he has to check because if this is the case his email has been hacked.
Otherwise, as the others pointed, the only think you need to send a “fake” email is to install some free mail server on your machine and then use .Net SMTP library. It takes about four rows of code.
