At this point we may as well just add it as a suggested practice on the "How to get an answer to your question" post. Given how infrequently those guidelines are followed we might gain some ground.

Not sure you follow me. I mean add item 12. to say: You should post your question multiple times and on multiple forums to improve your odds of getting an answer.

Since items 1. thru 11. are rarely ever followed we might end up reducing the number of multiple posts and cross posting.

Wink | ;)

Yeah...that's good for the first version upgrade.

But I'm thinking ahead to the future...nobody's going to read the item 12. I think we'll soon
find that most people will post to just one board.
To fix this, I propose the item is emblazened across the top of the page in big red flashing block letters (flames optional).

Smile | :)

Bah, this should be easily fixed. Simply say that it's strictly forbidden to read item 12 at the top. Everybody would jump right to item 12 skipping the items before it. Poke tongue | ;-P

In that case, we need to add some "Flash" content to that post. Or may be we try "Silverlight". The 12th point will be flashing in red, brown, magenta, and dark green colors, alternatively.

Shog on learning VB6: Ah, that would have been VB6. Kicked my ass anyway.
So easy to learn, just like falling down a flight of stairs...

The animated ads are distracting enough!

Come to think of it, I ignore the ads so maybe I'd ignore the blazing flashing posting rules.
Maybe this scheme isn't going to work at all... Laugh | :laugh:

p.s. I wonder what happened to the OP...

and you think that by posting a huge piece of code (not even formatted correctly), with a title that is far from being representative of you problem, by spamming the board (yeah, asking a question more than once is quite always bad seen) and with a question summed up in on of the smallest lines that can be people will help you ? seriously Sleepy | :zzz:

you'd better start reading this[^] and this[^] first...
