RE: Odd Behaviour
by John Weller 13 Oct '17

Hi Ken, An interesting thought! I've used it without parentheses for years and it's never bitten me on the bum - perhaps this is the first time :-) I'll start using the brackets.

Fox Tales
by Eric Selje 13 Oct '17

13 Oct '17

No, not the book (which is fun if you haven't read the history of Fox Software), but the new PBS Nature episode which is all about cute red foxes. It's a neat episode and at 9:15 there's a segment about the urban canids in my neighborhood here in Madison, WI, which are under study. Enjoy http://www.pbs.org/wnet/nature/fox-tales-full-episode/15540/?button=fullepi… Eric P.S.

[ADMIN] Change to Profox list message headers?
by Richard Kaye 12 Oct '17

12 Oct '17

Hi Ed, I've noticed that the profox emails are now coming in with your gmail address as the sender instead of some variation of profox. Which is breaking my inbound filtering. Which I can fix, of course, but thought I should ask if this is a permanent change. Thanks, -- rk --- StripMime Report -- processed MIME parts --- multipart/alternative text/plain (text body -- kept) text/html ---

RIP Al. Thanks for letting us know, Dave. And this seems like a good time to say something while we can all still read it.

[NF] Replacing IE's "Export to Excel" in Edge
by Ted Roche 10 Oct '17

10 Oct '17

Not Fox, though Fox makes perfectly good HTML so it could have been: A clien set of HTML reports she runs in one of my applications. "Export to Excel" t calls me up and complains the right-mouse-click-menu option "Export to Excel" doesn't work any more on awas an IE feature when you examined an HTML table, which apparently they chose not to duplicate in Edge, the new replacement browser with the big blue E for an icon. Clients don't know the difference, only that my software doesn't work. Microsoft giveth and Microsoft taketh away again. *sigh* Not the first time,... I suppose I can work up a feature to duplicate all the functionality by exporting all the data to SpreadsheetML when requested, but I wondered if anyone had run into this and knew of a workaround. BTW, this is a non-MS application, so using a Web Component or similar unholy solution is pretty much out of scope. -- Ted Roche Ted Roche & Associates, LLC http://www.tedroche.com

[NF] Lenovo observes the 25th anniversary of the ThinkPad
by Ted Roche 06 Oct '17

06 Oct '17

Lenovo's having a 25% off sale today only on their new ThinkPad 470, in observation of the 25th anniversary of the ThinkPad. I've owned a bunch of these, and really liked the fit and finish and reliability, right up to the point where they started loading spyware in the BIOS/EFI as well as glop on the OS. Solid machines, and the pointer stick rocked. Bill Machrone observed 30 years ago that the laptop you want always costs $5000 [1]. Max out this baby and you might be able to hit $3,000. It would be a heck of a machine, too! [1] https://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,2817,1545383,00.asp -- Ted Roche Ted Roche & Associates, LLC http://www.tedroche.com

[NF] RegAsm
by mbsoftwaresolutions＠mbsoftwaresolutions.com 04 Oct '17

04 Oct '17

I'm trying to register a foreign DLL using RegAsm (per page 2 on https://west-wind.com/presentations/wwDotnetBridge/wwDotnetBridge.pdf) but it's nowhere to be found on my machine. I found this on a google search: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/framework/tools/regasm-exe-assembly… I'm guessing this is part of Visual Studio???
