Hi John,

>Like everything,that is a negotiable point.. I think the water-shed event was Christof Lange's Y2K stuff. I think some sort of deal was worked out.

Even that was a real adventure. *g* First, all printed magazines were sold and many people tried to order it to no avail. A month later, the CD was sold out. The CD with the first bug fix was almost sold out. It took them a while to get the article online. And it took me even longer to get the permission to put my code into public domain. The only limitation I had to agree was that I won't put a link to the online-article into my upload. Don't ask me why. *g*

They got less restrictive since with the source code, but still not allow to pst articles somewhere else. Being wiser I'd always make sure upfront that my code is public domain or used commercially before writing the article. Otherwise my struct class would be propietary of Advisor, too. *g*

Christof
