I'm new to CP so maybe I missed this somewhere, but how do I bookmark a thread from the dicsussion forum?
It seems that "My Bookmarks" section only applies to Articles. After all, you want to be able to bookmark any post on CP - whether it's an article, discussion or some other user contribution.

If i remember right the "Messages Posted" text in the user settings page used to be hot and would take you to a list of your messages. This seems to have gone bye-bye.
What is the suggested way of quickly getting back to a message you've posted.

I found it handy.
Not so much to check for my replies, but to follow the thread and see how others replied.
I don't archive CP emails (i do get one on a reply), i leave that to CP.

Hello,
I think that it would be better to set the search between dates in the search comments page to the date of the first post and the current date.
Since the message boards are like an archive, you should not exclude the most dusty part but use it completely...
I know that it takes little effort to change the search dates, but it would be nice if I didn't need to do that.

The strain on the Chris' blood pressure would be suicide. One person does a search for "MFC" without changing the dates and that web server is out of action for half an hour while the database server spits and swears at it.
Two months would be a good one, if you don't find your answer there you can always lengthen it.

It would be cool if you could have a "search code" option that would bring up all projects which include some API call, COM interface, etc. This would require you to process the zip's that get uploaded and then build up a search index for them automatically. But that could be super helpfull.

Since this is a programming fourm, can we add a section that teaches skills. Most of the article out here are informaitonal; designed to educate a knowlageable programmer on how to inprove their skills. There are very few article where some starter code is given and the article is equvallent to a chapter in a text, and maybe a test application is also given. Maybe this is a good themed article of the month contest?

One of the most annoying things in HTML pages is the horizontal scrollbar. One way to ensure that text in table cells do not force the table to expand is to use the following style for all tables that need it:
<table style="table-layout: fixed; word-wrap: break-word;" width="500">
This will force any long hyperlinks to wrap around instead of expanding the table width. Note: CSS is preferable to this, but I sure as heck wasn't going to add a CSS file in here. Also, the width can be changed as suited. 
My 2 ¢s.

I say that it would be cool if there were a number on the thread you post in the messageboards which tells you how many people have viewed your thread.
You may now add that.

Hi,
I'm just wondering how do I know the status of the submitted article? I've submitted the article on submit@codeproject.com. Do I suppose to receive any email from Code Project? How long it takes to see my article online?
Regards

Normally, it takes 1-2 working days before an article gets published/updated, but on occasions due to heavy backlog, it might take a little more than that (and on such occasions an email is sent to the authors letting them know of the possible delay).

A reply was sent to pankajchitriv @ rediffmail.com asking you to re-send it in .zip format.

This depends on the current backlog. Unfortunately we're down to one full time editor so things have been a little tight, but we have two more waiting in the wings so we're hoping to have more reviewing and editing done soon.
cheers,

The backlog is pretty tight as of now, so URCs are 2nd priority for now.

I agree that VB users need equal rights on Code Project.
When you search for articles and code, the only options are MFC/C++, C#, ASP.NET and .NET. For VB users, we need to check .NET and weed through the articles to find VB code. 
Other than the search capabilities I think Code Project is great and have received so much information using the Message Boards that I cannot express my thanks to the staff for having this site for our use. I just wish the speed of the site could be better, and the search capabilities could be enhanced.
Thanks!

I agree, in the past I have had to use VB so that other non C# programmers could edit and update what I wrote. I think VB does need more of a presence here at CP.

I did notice that Chris Maunder seems to monitor this forum for suggestions.
My question to Chris is:
Is Code Project working on a way to add more searching capability for those of us who are looking for code and articles related to VB.
Maybe we're the minority. Are the members who look for C+ and C# articles a much larger percentage than the VB members? 
Just a suggestion.
While I'm up on the soap box... I just wanted to add that I really do feel that Code Project is an excellent site. Keep up the great job!

VB, no, but VB.NET, yes, absolutely.
