I believe there should be a Microsoft Office Developer Forum here. What say you all?
I didn't know but I believed.....

Because there are n number of stuffs or technologies in microsoft. like DirectX, Office, ADO, ActiveX, etc, etc.
so it would not be too nice to create forums for these "libs".
I belive this site was started with MFC and win32 SDK in mind but it has grown to give some room to other areas like ASP.net, C# etc so that they dont post C# questions in VC++ forum.
I have been with this site as a member for more than 2 years now and the number of questions related to Office posted here is quite minimal, so no point in creating a seperate forum for Office.
If you search there are many articles related to office automation, which could be quite useful.
Hope I answered your question.

but with the new Visual Studio for Office, I think we'll start to see more Office related questions. I certainly plan on making use of all the new tools Microsoft built to allow easier and better development with Office.
Of course, for the moment the questions can go in the appropriate languge form. If we start to get lots of Office questions, then maybe a new forum would be a good idea.

As a contributing author, I would find it informative to see how many times the downloads available with each article are downloaded. Is that information currently available somewhere? I haven't found it yet.
Thanks ... George

See the answer 6 threads ago[^]

Ah... Sorry, I misread your question.
There are currently "9396 online" - That would be one heck of a large list. I recon it averages about 8000 at any one time.

When a thread has more posts than can be shown on one page, clicking the Next button will produce an empty list. For example, go to this Console Application thread and click the View Thread link. Now if you click the Next button, the rest of the posts do not show up, but rather an empty list does.

I've used a component available via codeproject.com in some coursework (we're encouraged to do so as long as all appropriate accreditation is given), and I'd just like to know the licensing issues surrounding this - is the source code available open source(GPL?) etc?
I cannot find any of this information anywhere on the site. Any advice on this would be gratefully received 
|

Look at the article submission page. The submitter has to agree to a BSDesque license. To answer your next three questions, yes it should be easier to find, and yes a more formally explicit licence would be an improvement, no you and I aren't the only people who feel that way but we've never managed to convince the powers that be to change it.

Excellent, thanks for the info, Dan! (Never thought to pretend I was going to submit stuff to see if the information was there.) Maybe this will help someone in future if they have the same question, you know, as a last resort, search the forum to see if it's been asked before.
Thanks again

you mean like you did? This comes up every month or two.

Oh, er  Sorry in that case
Seriously though, I did do a search for info on this forum (license, gpl, all the keywords I could think of off the top of my head)... having gone back to the search function I believe I was only searching the Suggestions forum though. Ooh, actually I also searched using the horizontal search box for the entire size (under the little green guy at the top)... only relevent thing I could see was an article called "Why Open Source?", which explained about GPL/open source stuff... but didn't provide me with any concrete answers...

On the list of posted messages, here for instance, to be precise[^] would it be possible to display next to each entry if the thread has been answered -- or the numbers of answers (if it makes sense, of course) ?
Thanks a lot,

Chris, did you make a change in how the forum displays messages? Or is just me? I am using IE6 with the view set to message view. It use to be that when I clicked on a message the message would display at the top of the browser window so that the links to the messages below it were always visible. Now the top of the message remains static (or srcolls up slightly if the message is too long) so that I have to scroll the window to get to the next link.
I prefer the old way. The new way is rather annoying

Yes, the behaviour was changed because so many people were complaining about messages jumping around and their browser history being filled with junk from message clicks.
I'm trying to find a balance here...

I have to agree with PJ, the messages seem to jump even more. :shurgs:

Ok, maybe with time I will get used to it.
You cannot please all the people all the time, so maybe this is one of those times
