Oh, not that again. Some troll stole my email address and spread it all over the planet. You have me mistaken with someone else. > keep in mind that there is a lot of people out there > which do not exactly understand what a keyboard is. You're not wrong. I'm having that very argument with some upstart developers in my office. They have pushed a .NET GUI application into production, which is used by highly skilled data-entry keyboard operators. There is complete chaos, and a lot of very upset operators. productivity went down from 100 forms filled in per day to an average of 12 per day per operator. > But the majority of people also believes to be a computer guru, and if > you say "I think this is a mistake" they will reply "it's you who is > wrong, because things have always been done this way". I'll agree with you if you can come up with a better way of deciding when to close the window. Mind reading, perhaps? Ok, it would be best not to close the menu window on a default keystroke. > Being used to delphi, the first time I've seen the VB menu editor I > laughed: it was crap compared to delphi's one. How do you think I felt when I saw it, being a COBOL and FORTRAN programmer from the 1970's? :) > When I discovered gambas, > I saw the same menu editor.

What you are saying is right > - everyone would benefit from this change, but not everyone understands it. Gambas is excellent. It takes some getting used to and the documentation really needs a lot of work. When I've finally got my project beyond the "proof of concept" stage I will be donating my time to fixing it. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Let Crystal Reports handle the reporting - Free Crystal Reports 2008 30-Day trial.
