I suggested a while ago that When you get an email notification, there would be a link to the LAST page instead of the FIRST page, John Replied and said it was a good idea, but well, nothing has happened yet,
Are you working on it John?

Kedaman,
I believe John is working on it at the moment, but he is currently on vacation for a month so don't expect it to appear soon :)
All the best,
James

Jees. Here we are, working hard to keep this forum a lively and useful fount of knowledge for the seasoned and new Visual Basic developer alike, and John decides it's time he spent his useful hours lazing on the white, wave-lapped beaches of the Caribbean with gorgeous, short-skirted exotic women serving him and pampering him with his every wish and desire, while he quietly sips on a light alcoholic beverage below a blue, cloudless sky, with children quietly laughing and playing a distance away, and his beautiful, ex-supermodel wife, lying there, asking him to kiss her, and he just looks on into the distance where a lonely deserted island, covered in swaying palms, stands proud of the horizon, and then he closes his eyes and the light breeze keeps and the motionless parasol keep his now tanned skin cool, despite the blazing sun above.
Good on ya, John.
(James: He's actually gone to Cornwall.)
(Me: Ah, right.)

V(ery),
He's actually in the south of France... but he's going to Cornwall next week :) Still better than being stuck in the office though - tsk!

You tell John that you've had enough of covering for him on his two-week unplanned ski trips and month long holidays in a quiet Chateau by Marseilles. Tell him that unless he gets back in that office right this instant and helps the good people of VB-World, you'll close the site down and turn it into a morris-dancing homage site. That'll make him take the next Concorde back.
But then again, if he took Concorde he might never get back.
(PS Please send this thread to the chief executive of British Aerospace)
Oh, and while your at it ask him for a rise. And when he gives you your pay-cheque, remind him that doubloons haven't been legal tender for the past three-hundred years.
That family of yours have suffered for too long at the cruel and ruthless hands of John (aka Attila the Hun). It is time you look at him face to face and refuse to accept his authoritarian, anarchic ways.
But first, learn to pronounce authoritarian and anarchic.
PPS: The reason this post was edited is because John wanted to cover up James's supporters from the public. He doesn't want his cruel and twisted ways to be found out. For example last summer he [**********] a kangaroo while holding the [*********] of a flamingo. Upside-down.

So James is left holding the fort while John joins the jetset. Watch out he probably has the IPO already scheduled and is heading off to join Ronny in Rio. (Hmmm...this is weird all our names start with J
James now that you have the pilots set...could we get antiGuru status and bat icons.:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D
Also could you check out my request for a new forum and see what you think......thanks.
P.S Does John need an associate to carry his bags and handle the excess chicks he is no doubt picking up.

While John is busy being unfaithful with the French, you can add 1,000,000 Posts to everybody's count. You could also remove all the non-forum vb-World pages and replace the smilies with rude pictures. Also, change your name to Pubert and become a nudist. That'll put him off in the office. Another idea is to change the OS from Unix to BEoS or something, and from PHP to loads of html files HE's got to code together. Maybe change to site name from vb-World to VB-Whirled and replace vb-World with a C++ site. That'll scare the ____ out of John. Maybe you could pretend the office block you work in has been evacuated and a bomb inside had to be detonated (leaving the building in rubble) and then all VB-World sponsors left the site after they found it hadn't been updated since 1671. Maybe you could use that Register.Com ad that's at the top of the page to make a sister-site: http://www.We-Hate-John-Percival-And-Are-Tired-Of-Him-Going-On-Holiday-All-The-Time-Without-Notice-And-Leaving-Me-Here-In-The-Office.Com and then sue him for 'intentional emotional distress' or 'office truancy'.
That brings me onto another subject: Him (apparantely) being in France. I'm sure if you check his travel details carefully, you'll find he's gone Rastafarian-Searching in Jamaica and he's smoking pot as we speak. Well, I type.
I hope you sue him,
And give me the profits,
Thank you Mr. Marijuana,
Your partner in the downfall of the wicked John,

hey, very basic, can BeOS run by itself??? I heard that it needs Windows to run.
BeOs was originally concieved as a replacement to the MacOS, but was beaten out by Nexus. If you log onto their site, (haven't got the address), you can register to get a free download of the next version of the OS.
No you don't need Windows to run the OS.

Jethro: What could the BeOS site be?
Me: (a flash of genius) How about http://www.BeOS.com ?
Gee. Hard stuff.
Einstein would have had trouble with it.
thats a good idea kedaman :)
