Mike,

Please accept my apologies for my shameless response, the reason (not an
excuse) is that I know a Mike Iem who's no Microsoft employer.

Michael,

Sorry, my mistake.

Willy.

Not an excuse but I do have a colleague at CPQ with the same name.

We were working on a production app using a combination of WebForms and
WinForms/Web Services. It would have been a dual interface so that you could
use a browser when you don't have access to the full program. If you care
for the details, send me an email*.

It was stopped because Beta 1 has some bugs in the Typed Datasets and the
load event in WebForms. We need to do it the 'right' way so it can be used
as a demo, thus using the work arounds is not acceptable. We will try again
when Beta 2 comes out.

You didn't necessarily need to apologize. You could have pretended you
meant...

Then why did he reply with the address: mikeiem@hotmail.com instead of
mikeiem@microsoft.com?

Pehaps "mikeiem@microsoft.com" is not his Microsoft e-mail address...

Anyway I was wrong, the Mike Iem I know lives in London while the poster
lives in Bellevue (WA), so it is possible he's a MSFT product manager.

Hi WillyD:

>>so it is possible he's a MSFT product manager.<<

He *is* a MSFT product manager, as Michka already explained.

Aaron: Perhaps he posted from a machine (such as one at home) configured to
use his personal e-mail address rather than his business address?

Lots of frauds in the world. He is probably who he says he is, but that
also doesn't mean he's not an impersonator. All the MSFT posts I've seen
have had microsoft.com return addys. Never hurts being a bit skeptical.

....unless you'd like to establish/maintain a good working relationship with
Microsoft Program Managers. ;-)
