Another thing, if there were checkboxes next to the thread above this (the one I replied to) and all the above ones, I would have selected your name and been able to send you an e-mail. Of course if I selected multiple threads of mine, I wouldn't want multiple e-mails, but only one to be sent per user.

I'm wanting to use MFC Grid control 2.25
in a project. The statement about distribution is ambigious. Am I right in thinking that if I take the source code and modify it and use it in application then I can distribute the executable without any issues?
That's the feeling I get from reading the redistribution notice with the classes.

Yes, as long as you agree the code is provided s-is without any warranty.

G'day (for Chris's benefit),
I've been a little frustrated with the Search option at the top of the Code Project pages. For instance I tried to search for a VB.net article about reusable about box forms that I read in December.
Problems:
I tried to use a word in the title ("About") and got zero results.
I tried to search for vb.net articles only, but there is not option.
I tried the VB.net link on the left side pane, then use Firefox find with "About" to filter down the page to the results. Which worked!
I don't really want to use Google site search to do this either.
Is it just me or is the search feature in Code project lacking?
Is there a way of "remembering" favourite articles?
Just my two cents.

Yep - support for VB.NET is lacking but is being improved (and there will be improvements for all languages).
If you're logged in then you can bookmark articles by clicking the bookmark link under the 'Toolbox' link at the top left of articles (under the title)
cheers,

Just so you don't miss it 
Lounge Post[^]
basically, "we the people" (a very few of them) think it would be good to have some basic support for peer review before the article is posted.
I've been thinking for a long time that it would be helpful.
I think the technical side can be kept simple first - An Article section that acts as "Peer review arena", where articles can be uploaded, modified and removed (!) using the submission wizard, and others can browse, and give recommendations using the article message board.
some more thoughts[^]
Of course the tricky thing are the social implications - will it work?

What's the difference between this and the Unedited Reader Contributions section?
I think the issue is less one of needing a place to review articles, and more one of keeping the sub-standard articles off the homepage and latest articles list. This is why I put in place a rating filter in the 'Latest articles' page. If it's case of being stricter then we can do that too, but if visibility is based on rating then we need to ensure that malcious voters don't unduly keep an otherwise worthy article out of site.

Keeping it off the home page? you are right on this one, Chris.
So the technical differences I see:
- not listed on homepage, newsletter
- no voting
- after final publish, the message board is reset
(but I can already see people arguing about the newsletter and message board part).
Why: I don't think of it to keep "the crap out", as others have put it; but more as an encouragement
to write articles, and spend time on them, and as a collaboration tool.
I've seen a few "will my article be good enough" concerns, and I've liked to have discussed two of my later
articles before posting them (no idea if this would have them made better, though).
"Socially" (bad word, but I can't think of any better), it is positive rather than negative feedback.
Not "Your article is bad", but "you can improve your article".
Benefits: I have no idea if it works, or of the benefits, So I want something quickly implemented and tried,
so it's no loss if it doesn't work.
Many articles by foreigners are currently underrated because of their english skill. Sometimes
CP seems "hostile" or at least "elitaire" to newbies. I would estimate you have a core community of ca.
100 well-versed regular posters. Just two "teacher-types" among them could get some great networking on the way.
Just a thought: a forum where people ask for "article review", and do the actual exchange
by private e-mail could do the trick - so one could argue "if there is any real need for this feature, it would
already happen". But maybe just lowering the technical hurdle and writing an invitation is all we need.
I also see the other side - it might become clogged with stale half-an-articles, a feature wart that needs
to be monitored and maintained, and is unused by all except two lunatics who send you death threats when
you try to pull it.

In all of the drop-down lists for foums in Code Project, the only one that has the GO button appearing for me is the one in the main page. It seems to me that all the other ones have the button hidden depending on whether you have javascript enabled or not. Is that one coded differently or am I programming in my sleep again?

It's coded differently.

This author mentions to contact him with any questions yet doesnt leave how, http://www.codeproject.com/csharp/HttpWebRequest_Response.asp
There isn't any information in his online profile. Any suggestions?
Thanks,

Chris, you have to do something with http://www.codeproject.com/csharp/[^]. It opens very slow, and I`m lost in that page Too many in one page.
<italic>Work hard and a bit of luck is the key to success. You don`t need to be genius, to be rich.

The C# section will soon be reclassified into simpler more homogenious sections. It's on the works right now. Paul and Chris might know more though

I'd really like to ask the community about bug tracking/issue management software - there is no good fit in the current forum set. How about something that covers things like debuggers/profilers/code checkers/crash tools etc etc ?
Thx.

Hello,
I'm using some of the code from this site, and I would like to get a notification via e-mail when the code or these articles is being updated by its author. (e.g. when the articles in my bookmars are updated, or create a specific list for this purpose).
One advantage about notifications via e-mail, is that you don't need to be 'on-line' all the time, or even every day for catching the notifications. (e.g. take notice in the home page that one of the articles you use is being updated).
Any comment? Is this possible? (I guess that yes, due that all the info exists with CP.

If you don't need to be notified immediately, why don't you subscribe to the weekly CP newsletter?
Here's a trick for "the real programmer":
Write the titles of all interesting articles in to text file.
When your mail client has downloaded a CP newsletter, run a script that finds the newsletter in the inbox, searches for the titles from the text file, and deletes the newsletter if none of the titles is found.
For Thunderbird: The mails are in a plain text file called "Inbox" in your profile directory.
For Outlook: Try a VBA script.
