Hi !
I just read one of your earlier posts about a recursive version of the selection sort. I´ve been having a bit of a hard time getting the recursive thinking in to my head, but after reading trough your way of reasoning how to rebuild the sort it just "clicked". So.....thanks!!

From the beginning , i mean the beginning sequention and selection , iteration, of cours the book must include a lot of case and the soulations.
And then the rule of pascal, or Delphi , dosn't matter.
Please , and again please if you have any paper work als it be suseful,.

Hi Julian,
just a quick one to say thanks for an old article and program on ISO 8601 for Week number. I spend more time testing and figuring out why other implementations where not working and stubbled across yours in a small thread in a response to one that didnt work. Nice piece of work and thanks.
On a side note.. I brought Telerix controls into a few client companies that I worked in, a few years ago. At first it worked well but once we tried something not out of the box... duh! I then moved to dev express and we pushed those controls to the limit also. Some cool stuff, modal dialogs on ASP etc ... all great. Yeah ok I coming to the 'But' bit :-) just remember in designing to keep it simple stupid. I did notice after each release that the functionality grew to such a size that it was like learning a hole new programming skill. So if you can in there... keep it simple as the controls are great...
thanks again... Mick

DoctorGauss: Good luck with the book! Glad you like it. I also have a Russian translation of it, although I can't read it. By the way, your English is just fine.
Cheers, Julian
