I have the same curiosity
Because on my regular provider your file was not there.
I had to look for news.Microsoft.com to find it.

That's one reason why attachments should not be used.

First of all, I did not come here to troll.

In my original post I said:

Sorry, I forgot the ";-)".
It was you that posted, less than an hour after my original post:

I fully agree with you. 'For...To' is not a gode choice in this case.
You apparently read my message as a flame. Cor's code didn't
work. That is a fact.
ACK.

It is undisputed to this point. Code that doesn't work isn't
helpful even though that was the intent.
ACK.

For loops aren't very suitable for iterating dynamic data
structures that will change within the iterations, so that's what
I meant by 'misusing a For loop'.
ACK.

Iterating the collection from back to front using a For loop
merely a means to get a poorly chosen looping structure
to work in this situation. These are technical issues that
are open for legitimate debate.
ACK.

I did not shout, and I challenge you to show where I did.
You didn't even give me an hour to post a solution.

I feel sorry, I am not a native English speaker and it seemed to me that
your posting sounded very unfriendly.
Who the hell do you think you are?

Herfried K. Wagner.
Being an MVP doesn't give you any authority to dictate
the direction of the conversation. You also neglect to
recognize who has done the majority of the abusive name
calling in this thread, going so far as to condone and support
their behavior yourself. You and everyone else here has also
conveniently chosen to ignore the code that I posted and
its merits, choosing instead to jump on the bandwagon of
flamers. I'm not pleased with how this thread has turned
out.
Click to expand...

I am not pleased too.
How many trolls post real code, that works, and is at least
as good as anything else posted? I stand by my code, and if
you would've given me a chance to post it before you and others
started attacking, maybe you could see that.
Click to expand...

OK, I didn't see your code when posting. Sorry.
Your MVP status doesn't convey you any authority to
misrepresent the nature of this thread and your complicity in
condoning the abuse by cheering them on. You don't deserve
any respect for that, regardless of what other help you provide here.
LOL.

But you've killfiled me, right?
Click to expand...

No. That was kind of joke. We often make jokes there...
That's OK. I no longer have any expectation of any measure
of fair treatment from you. You can dismiss me as a troll, regardless
of the facts.
Click to expand...

I feel sorry, but in your case that was a late-night (Europe) joke.

Click to expand...

It was never my intention to change the direction of conversation.
Nevertheless, as an MVP, I am allowed to write my optinion (like all the
other people there).
Herfried dedicates far more of his time helping others than you
or I do, and probably anyone else who uses this newsgroup.
LOL.

His status gives him the right to have a respected view, because at
the end of the day if it wasn't for the MVP's this newsgroup would be
dead.
Click to expand...

There are some well-contributing non-MVPs too...
Do you honestly think Microsoft would rather pay people
to help in here? dream on!
LOL.

Congratulations Jack on a fine piece of code, a bit late mind, but a
fine piece of code. I think that we should all recommend *you* for MCP
status simply down to your amazing piece of code, if we all had your skills
software would be so much nicer.
Click to expand...

Notice that Jack _was_ right: A 'For...To' loop is not the best choice in
this case.
Don't you mean misinterpret? Herfried wasn't really representing this
thread was he? He is simply pointing out facts that you are "trolling" in a
"troll" like manor that is both vile and undesirable. Again, without the
MVP's, especially Herfried, this newsgroup would be dead, as dead as your
personality.
Click to expand...

For me, trolls are people wo start "threads" which cause a lot of off-topic
discussion.
LOL, regardless of the facts that you are a troll? If you don't want
fair treatment from Herfried then don't expect the other MVP's to
treat you fairly (Not that I speak for them of course as I am not an
MVP), why not simply leave the newsgroup?

There are free Java ngs available too...

Herfried,
I think that I am therefore so curious, because it says OE 6.0 and with that
it is quiet easy to download attachments.

Because it is not a topic for this newsgroup, I cannot give you the answer
how.
But you can look for that at

:-)

When you be able with your own newsreader to change the official lines, I am
curious to know how you did that
:-)

Herfried,
Please contribute to a try from me for a now more serious discussion I have
opened?

It's easy, but I don't download them.

Some newsservers and newsreaders delete attachments.

I have "queued" your discussion... I will read it soon.
 
Find it out yourself!

Well thank you very much Herfired, by looking at your message source you are
using "Outlook Express"

'X-Newsreader: Microsoft Outlook Express 6.00.2800.1158

But if this is the case I thought it only prevented you from opening them, I
wasn't aware that it deleted them?

Also, why the tension? Have I upset you at all Herfried?

Nick.

Did I say otherwise then?

Oh, I see where you going with this one, thanks Herfried, at least I know
where I stand with you now, fair enough.

And? If you are refering to my post about making a menu item for IE by
VB.NET code then I think you are being a bit on the picky side, as my
questions regarding said code has even been posted into the IE newsgroup
with 0 replies, that is also why I was asking as I wasn't sure if I needed
to use JavaScript or not. But fair enough, if you want to feel that way,
who am I to stop you? Maybe I shouldn't defend your integrity next time, I
expect you can do that well enough on your own.

Sorry... I only wanted to tell you that it's not recommended to post
attachments.

Righty, as I have said previously, I don't have an ISP news server, I'm
using Microsofts one only :-(.

No, I don't refer to your post. It was only an addition to what you said in

I think you misunderstood me...

:-)
 
GOOD GRIEF!!! All I wanted was a simple answer... didn't mean to start a
huge discussion! :)

I should blame myself partly on this... it was only after I wnet thru the
debugger numerous times that it dawned on me 'DUMMY! You are removing items
from an array, which changes the number of elements in the array...' and
then saw the error of my ways. Didn't mean to start everyone into a flame
war over pseudo code vs. real code, etc.

But I do want to thank everyone for their help.... Guess it is time to end
this thread, though.

I use Microsoft's newsserver too but there may be some people who do not see
the attachment because their newsserver kills it. That's all I wanted to
say.

I think I must have, my appologies Herfried, sorry for the confusion :-)

Hi Herfried,

I'm curious too. I'm using OE 6.0 and attachments work fine for me.
