Guys,

we really are serious about a COM forum. The forums get bogged down with fairly basic questions and a more 'professional' forum would be extremely useful. This is real world stuff - some of us make our livings this way (or would like to!)

So how about it???

Cheers,

Paul.

Nope. COM (Component Object Model - ActiveX to everyone else ;)).

Some of these replies are inCOMparably better than anthing that I could have devised.

All I have to say is:

Components
Operate
Methods

For
Offering
Really
Useful
Methodologies

Not
Only
Work <ahem>

Bit over COMposed perhaps, but I have made my point, perhaps they will COMmit to a new Forum.

P.S. PLEASE!

Apologies for the lack of COMmunication recently - it's been a busy couple of weeks :) I'll chat with John and see if we can get a COM forum up and running.

All the best,

James
