I thought you were using Linux :) ? Melissa doesn't bother Linux :-)

We just got struck by melissa. I think we killed it quick enough to stop the problem though.

So if my responses are a little slow you know why.

I must say that it was pretty cool watching it in action. I now know why some of the first hit large companies where
caught off guard so easily.

I have not seen this yet but then again I haven't tried any heavy nesting yet.

Could someone do me a favor.....

In stdControls.pp I have soe source code that defines a class called TMemoStrings (AFTER Implementation)

In TMemoStrings if I uncomment the function overrides, I get a compiler error saying... "overloaded methods which are virtual; must have the same return type: TMemoStrings.GetTextStr" followed by similiar errors on the remaining procedures. WHY?

If you look at the definition for TStrings and look at these procedures you'll see that they ARE returning the same type.

Any thoughts would be appreciated.

I've noticewd a problem and am not sure if it's already known.

If I do this:
Memo1.Lines.LoadFromFile('name');
I get a compiler error "Syntax Error := expected but . found" of character 12
When I chagne it to
with Memo1.Lines do
LoadFromFile('Name');

it works. Seems to be a problem with accepting more that one '.' in a statement.

Its those darn desktop pc's running windows sure did not bother the linux machine sitting next to me. Ha ha...

I do see us having to build some custom helper library in C at some point to help us manipulate the
widgets.

Or use Eudora as mail program ;)
