Re: TIB: Re:GetKey
Nice recovery! I agree about what you said with the expert thing. On sports
games, there are usually 3 levels: novice, intermediate, and expert. That
expert does not mean that you are the greatest ever, or perfect, because you
usually still have a challange with it. You still have to try. It just means
experienced. I don't see why everybody got so mad at that. It's just how
that person talks. Like to some people, Pepsi is cola, to others it's pop,
and to others it's Coke (Yes, I know somebody who calls every cabonated
beverage Cola). Anyway, we should not get mad because he worded his sentences
differently.
That's my two cents

"experienced" would be a better word than "expert" (even though both
words mean almost the same thing). I did not mean to seem haughty. An
expert is someone who has a lot of knowledge about a particular subject,
or is "experienced" in a particular subject. Sometimes when we read the
word 'expert', we immediately associate it with 'perfection', which is
not true. I agree that to come out and say I was an Expert is not the
way to introduce myself to a group. I do not know everything about
TIBASIC, but I am very knowledgeable in TIBASIC. I guess I was typing too
fast without thinking. I also know about the other mem errors you
mentioned, but when I read Tatsuo's e-mail I knew right away what the mem
error was, and I wasn't even thinking about the others. Stupid me :-P.
Thanks for helping me realize my error. I hope that I will not continue
to be looked down upon by the rest of this list.
My regrets,
Philip
