Dear Ms. Smitha Vijayan
Please know that my article "Integrate Help Into Your .NET apps" needs an urgent modification. The article can be found at http://www.codeproject.com/dotnet/HelpIntegrationInDotNet.asp
Please refer to this meesage posting to know why the modification is necessary.
http://www.codeproject.com/dotnet/HelpIntegrationInDotNet.asp?forumid=37587&exp=0&select=802753&df=100#xx802753xx
I understand it is our responsibility to ensure that articles on codeproject.com are a consistent and reliable source of information. From the numerous feedbacks that i have received for the article(by feeback and mail), it appears that the discussion on the topic was way over due. And it should continue to be in demand for a greater period of time, and hence the urgency to update the article with the corrections.
Please advise on how to get the article corrected.
Thank you.
P.S. I dhad no idea where else to post this message to get you attention. And i am hoping it does.

Hi,
I am looking trough the CodeProject but can't find and instructions on how to format messages in the forum. I am looking to how to highlight a class name for instance, and how to make a part of code appear in that yellow rectangle so it is properly formated.
Q:What does the derived class in C# tell to it's parent?
A:All your base are belong to us!

Select the text you need to change i's style then click
code
or
pre
from the buttons at the bottom.

I have no such buttons ...

You need to be using IE for the formatting buttons to appear. Otherwise, just enter the HTML tags yourself:
<code>CWinApp</code> -> CWinApp

Somethin IDisposable something
if ( txtMessage.Text != "" )
{
btnFinish.Enabled = true;
btnNext.Enabled = true;
btnPreview.Enabled = true;
}

So it works

There was some discussion earlier as to weather or not CodeProject was VC++ oriented. Some people thought that CP revolved too much around VC++, and too little around other subjects.
It is true that CP has mostly VC++ articles, fewer C# articles and even fewer VB.Net articles. But does that really mean that CP revolves around VC++? No, I think that a majority of programmers simply program C++, and post their VC++ code. Since there are less VB.Net and C# articles, CP attracts less developers for those langauges.
To try and even this balance, a VB.Net monthy competition could be added. That might inspire programmers to post their VB.Net code.

But that will change.

I belive there are more ASP, VB programmers in the world than VC++ programmers. Well at least I can say that coz i meet lot of ppl who work on VB, ASP rather than on VC++.
And hey this questions should have gone in the Lounge. its a general discussion not a suggestion.

True, this would be a good general discussion. However, my point was to suggest a monthly contest for VB.Net.

I think there is montly article compition so that covers vb.net as well.

the rules says,
"Each month the best article in each category (MFC/C++, C# etc) ..."
notice the etc in the end that includes VB stuff too, plus this month one of the winner is from ASP.NET
so your request is baseless.

"notice the etc in the end that includes VB stuff too, plus this month one of the winner is from ASP.NET"
If there are prizes for each category, does that mean CP gives prizes for HTML?
I've not seen prizes for VB.Net, but if you can locate a prize winner, I would love to see it.
"so your request is baseless."
Was it really? I did't (and still don't) see a VB.Net monthly competition. Thus, my request for a VB.Net competition is based, and your charge that my request is baseless is actually baseless itself.

Well may be there was never been a pricewining vb.net article.

The article compition applies for all as the compittion rules states. So now you want vb.net compition, then there would be C# competition and HTML competion, then perl competition then CP will break up into 2 one for vb.net articles and other for the rest of the articles.
Where will it end ?

POssibly. However, how many VB programs do you use, and how many C++ ? That is, what languages are used to write real programs that make it to market and succeed ?

I dont care wheather there are less C++ programmers or more...
Personally i would not like many non VC++ articles here is CP. May be i am selfish or wrong or stupid, but thats the way i am.

I agree with you. I think this monthly competition thing will definitely attract programmers of other languages to contribute their code like C++ programmers do.

IMO, I love CP because it is non-VB (for the most part).
I can go ANYWHERE to find an answer for a problem using VB. But I don't use VB (because it sux) and it ticks me off that google responds with 20 pages of VB links to every C++ link when I'm looking for something.
Maybe this should go in the Soapbox since I'm ranting, but you asked.

i believe yes.
If you take a look at VB/VBScript article section you'll find that there are many unedited contributes..though hundereds of articles are edited monthly..
VB6/VB.Net are very popular and need more attention.
I say this although I prefer VC++,C#.. But I really think that VB6/VB.Net are great.. programmers need many flavours

I wouldn't say so, exactly. C# and VB.NET are both emerging languages so there are less developers in those languages at the moment. C++ has been around for many more years. I was originally a C++ programmer (started semi-commercially in 1995, fully in '96) until a couple of years ago when I switched to C#. Probably in a year or so the numbers will even out. But, even although I no longer commercially program in C++ I still like to "keep my hand in" and dabble occasionally and the C++ articles are great.
From a personal point-of-view I'd prefer more C# articles than VB.NET (I know is is a stereotype and unfair on the large number of people who make their living writing VB.NET code, but VB.NET looks like the programs I wrote in high-school [over 12 years ago now])

I agree with you that VB.Net's syntax does look old. I can program C#, but I use VB.Net mainly because I find it's syntax easier to read than thousands of curlies. But, it's mainly personal preference.

I didn't say it looked old. However, I can see how my previous post could indicate that was what I meant. So I retract the statement "over 12 years ago now".
What I meant was the VB.NET looks like the programs I wrote in high-school [which was before I learned how to program properly]. The inference being that it looks immature or childish.
