Classic VB newsgroup for VB6 and earlier versions. If you want to talk about VB.Nxt then do so on the VB.Nxt newsgroup, which you'll find at microsoft.public.dotnet.languages.vb and to which I've sent a copy of this message so they'll know you're coming. They might even throw a little party for you (or, more likely, they'll throw a party when you leave because you're basically a waste of good bandwidth!). Mike

Whatever, I lurk on here to pick up bits about Vb6. I am not remotely interested in the other stuff, having sampled books abou it and concluded that it's the most user unfriendly pontification ever imposed on mankind...

Is that different to group won't show up first. When .Nxt is being discussed here, it's more likely to be the first in search results, and you would find new comers who post new threads here about .Nxt. The frequency of these threads depend on how much .Nxt discussion occurred here recently. Try searching for some terms at the link below. You will find that the result comes from different groups. http://www.microsoft.com/communities/newsgroups/en-us/default.aspx

My guess is that there's some sort of spring equinox holiday in the Netherlands this week - perhaps a week-long bacchanalia where everyone tries to drink too much. :) > I don't really get that either.

I don't think anyone disagrees with that. "Larry Serflaten" <serfla***@usinternet.com> wrote in message news:e8xIxqryKHA.3884@TK2MSFTNGP06.phx.gbl...
