Hi pipk, Gates is reaping the benefits of having such a well established product. I might repeat myself. But why is it that it is that well established. Simply because lots of users copied it "illegally" in the 80th and early 90th. So he should complain about illegal copies and...

Thanks a lot, gunthnp. That helps a lot. I read the paper completely and carefully. But still I don't trust M$. First: This white paper is a research. It might be some hidden information in the code they didn't find out or presented. Second: Using the online registration, M$ still can...

Okay. But registing online is common also by other vendors than MS. Somehow I have to register... Good to know, that it is possible to register XP by phone. But this is how it works with XP: You install XP, type in your CD-key, and after that XP calculates an ID code you transmit to M$. After...

Hi iza, giving wrong information? Okay. You should never register online. As I just read in the above mentioned German pc magazine M$ is able to do a lot in behind. At least they might know a lot about Your hardware. Still I don't like the thought that we have to swallow everything. Yes...

@mcvpjd3: Sorry, no! German laws say that you own the copy. It is definitely different to the US law. And M$ has to accept the federal German law. Point. Siegfried :-)

@mcvpjd3: First, German laws say that I own the copy of the software regardless what M$ wants to offer me. In Germany it is illegal to say by M$ that I only got the right to use the software. That is different in US laws, I know. Second, owning or using: The point is: I buy something and want...

Hi, try http://www.falch.net You can get a free trial. It covers a GNU C-compiler, emulator, PalmOS SDK, forms editing, debugging without Palm connected... I think, not only because of the reasonable price around $230 this will be my personal choice. Siegfried.

Hi, there is another IDE, much easier to handle than CodeWarrior. I am just getting my first experiences with Falch.net. It's about $220. It adds an Emulator and GNU compiler. It's easy to use, but you have to know C. You can add forms like in Delphi/VB. Falch.net has a trial for download, so...

Thanks a lot! That really helped. Well, I did a little mistake I always didn't notice. Now it works will a tiny Hello World App. But when I start the bigger client/server app, all I get is Windows Error 0x800706D3. It must have to deal with the server rights. But I thought I set everything...

Hi, I want to implement a client app, which through DCOM will access a server app, I already wrote. I am developing with VB6/Win98SE and the server runs Win2k. No problems using COM (out-of-process) on the local (developer) machine. But how can I set the reference in the VB6-IDE to the remote...

Hey, I have to add this post. Sorry, if I take all your time. I was about 8 years old when I was tought about the vietnam war in school. Yes we talked about it clearly, but I was not just alone with that, I didn't just watch war. They told me the truth about it, that my mind hardly could take...

Hi ahdkaw, as I wrote before the main thing should be, to give children the tools to make good decisions by themselves. And I said that we in Germany are faced much more with nude pictures and so on, and I think it even helped me in my younger days in some way. So I am not into hiding...

Thanks, Voyager1. I am not in any situation "me or him shooting", thank God! Take a look at MY favourite team over here: http://www.darmstadt-diamonds.com/cgi-bin/s_news.pl?lang=eng Coming back to the issue of this thread: After thinking a while, I say, that it should be the right...

I agree with everything the last two postings say. I will not turn to XP, if MS wants too much information, I might at work, if my boss tells me to. But I am quiet sure that he doesn't force me to. And then they will buy a package where I don't tell a thing of my private dates. I hope that...

Sorry, Voyager1, for offending. But I asked myself lots of times, what I would do, if it were just: Me or the guy shooting. The answer is not obvious to me. (I'd rather go to a American Football game than watch soccer. Anyway...) I wonder what You would do, if You lived in a country that...

And I agree with darktempiar, spradeepraj should have given a link. That would be enough and helpful too. I am sure that he didn't write this "book" only for posting it here. (If he wrote it himself at all!) Never stop thinking! Siegfried.

Just to tell you: I got through it, but not with VB6. I took Delphi. It was soooo easy. It really took me about 15 minutes, including the editing of the test application! The IDE automatically added the TLB that I can now read in clear text (so I got everything about the methods and properties...

( Voyager1: *swallow!* ) What makes the comparison a little different for me, is that I am not living in the USA. So I don't have ANY influence on the legal rights a state grants. I have no influence what MS is allowed to do with the information I give them. And: I just registered a new car...

Sorry Quehay, if we'd go on discussing in German, my phraseology would raise a lot :-) But You're right. Sometimes I wonder where some of you learned their _mother tongue_! Never stop thinking. Siegfried.

> Didn't Martin Luther and Karl Marx get started this way? Didn't they in some way succeed? I still don't believe that we have to swallow everything. But too many people think they have to, so they don't think any further. We are NOT living in the middle age anymore! Maybe it's not the sit it...
