And about features, you did'nt ask for them, and I did'nt say you asked for them. But to be aware of a limitation is halfway to ask for those limitations to be removed - unless you say that limitations are a good thing. > >>> Besides, do you feel it is unreasonable for someone to want "a box used >>> to show the contents of a Field or edit it", a data-bound control >>> intended to save programming time, to have similar functionality to a >>> TextBox? >>> >>> >> No. >> >>> >>> >>>> Real programmers prefer to do things their way, with few versatile >>>> mechanisms. >>>> >>>> >>> So, who do you believe might not be a real programmer? >>> >>> >> Are you expecting I say "you"?

Even taking my words the worst possible way, at the point where I expressed a judgment on your ideas (just *some* of your ideas), I did not judged you - this is why I don't believe I had insulted you. Anyway, if you feel insulted, let me say it was not my intention. I would feel very stupid by insulting someone I not even know, just basing on a few 'technical' words he could had say. I hope we will have further occasions to understand each other, if you want.
