We recently had a brief discussion about a new name for the Soapbox to more clearly express its purpose. How about The Asylum?

I am on the lookout for an article on how to control what files are listed in Windows Explorer.

Other articles here on CP have shown me how to implement an Explorer band bar, now I just need to know how to actually tell that file list to do certain things.

Basically I want to be able to do the following:
- Show only files modified today/yesterday/last week/in a certain period
- Allow DOS like wild card filtering (maybe even Regular expressions)
- Highlight different files between folders

and some other ideas. I can probably implement all of that, all I need to know is how to grab control of that file list.

Also seeing as my C++ skills are limited I would like to see the above done with C# or even, gasp, VB. Big Grin | :-D

thanks all

Well even if CP works fine on Opera and Netscape and Mozilla, I'd suggest that you keep using IE because it'll always always look better on IE. Smile | :)

In the "CodeProject Stuff" section there is a cool thing I want, but how!?
It's the news report to the phone or something like that... Or does CodeProject have a WAP site too?

I'm tired and can't write ood English! Smile | :)

But how to use it?

I found a address in the file: http://www.wapforum.org/DTD/wml_1.1.xml

Is that the WAP address!?

It depends on your phone and service provider. I have an Ericsson T39 and it allows me to put in whatever web address I want. Type it in, press go and there's the last 5 articles posted, right on my tiny 0.01 mega pixel, 3 colour screen.

Printing

Considering we all have a responsibility to the environment, how about adding something like the following to article's?

<%
if request.QueryString("print") = "true" then
	response.Write "<script language=""javascript"">alert(""Please consider the environment and print conscientiously"");</script>"
end if
%>

I know many find it easier to read articles on paper then on the screen (including me), but this might just get people to stop and think about how much paper their using, and if it's really necessary... Confused | :confused:

Maybe we should write shorter articles to take up less paper?

Not a bad idea, CP doing its bit for the environment.

It would be nice to have a "Tips" section, kind of useful stuff for developers. That way, it may reduce posting stuff as "Article". I don't know if you would have any concerns with that.
