When ever I try to type the at symbol I get: "
Works by copy and paste so I was able to copy and paste my login email, as I cannot type it in.

Some keyboards have " on shift+2 instead of @. Did you install a new keyboard language recently?

No, I could type @ into google or word, just not in codeproject, but it's working today.

I should have asked - is this Windows 2000? When the same symptoms occur on my Win 2k machine, a reboot fixes the problem.

Shouldn't a logoff and log back in itself work? I think it works.

Hi Bob,
In that case, I have to punt.

It is obvious you've uncovered a hidden feature (an Easter Egg perhaps?). Now if we can only find:
1) how to get the copy of Flight Simulator to launch Excel 97 Flight Simulator [^]
2) the documentation on this hidden feature
I suspect [2] has to do with Security and thwarting online phishing scams - if you cannot enter information into Explorer, it cannot be phished.

...why not have a survey asking who is using it? Some suggested options:
- I don't have it installed and don't plan to anytime soon.
- I don't have it installed but hope to try it out soon.
- I have it installed but haven't used it much.
- I use it fairly often to try out the new stuff.
- I am using it already for commercial dev work.

I have posted an article here http://www.codeproject.com/useritems/mp3toexe.asp If you view it in IE it failing of the right edge. But there isn't any text that goes out of the border so you don't need to scroll. There aren't extra spaces either. So why does this happen? Also, in preview it doesn't flow out.

I reformated the article for you - the lines in the code blocks were too wide.

Thanks very much But I think I have checked that too. Strange

I have also encountered this (and still scratching my head as to what I did wrong). Could you provide more details so I don't have it happen again in the future?

The trick is to watch the scrollbar at the bottom of the WYSIWYG editor in the submission wizard. The WYSIWYG editor is set as 640 pixels wide. If it can't hold the contents of your article without scrolling then neither will a printed version of your article.
Wrap your code correctly within that window and everything will look perfect.

In the past, I've used the 80 character count rule. I suppose I've violated it somewhere.

I've posted 111 more then 100 messages and I am still a poster. Why? Also, when I submited my frist article I was browser for several days and then became contributor. Why does this happen? Thanks

You have to explain to them [VB coders] what you mean by "typed". their first response is likely to be something like, "Of course my code is typed. Do you think i magically project it onto the screen with the power of my mind?" --- John Simmons / outlaw programmer

It's not possible to specify code #include directive in the message text. Seems it's taking as an html tag. Putting code tag also could not help me.

I know for one that you need to replace > and < with the appropriate HTML - a &, then 'gt' or 'lt' (no quotes) then a semi-colon.
So you could have an SHTML include with <!-- #include file="blah.htm" -->
Then again, SHTML is no use with C# and the like.
Maybe you need to do something of the sort for a hash key? Although, it doesn't seem like there is one.

It's hard to find out for a normal user. However I managed with lt and gt because I knew it. Even I'm seeing the CP FAQ for the first time But for a normal user see it will be a bit difficult

Yeah... wouldn't hurt to put a link to it in that big empty space next to [New Message | Reply to a Message] on the [New | Reply] pages. And the modify page.
