3. Easier Locale management. For me at least 40% of programming is to manage
different locales. I would like to see for instance a set of word libraries
for menues and dialogues.

Yes, but not high priority. I'd prefer Unsigned arithmatic, which sort of
implies your request :-)

How about being able to specify an icon for projects without forms!

I suggest some sort of integration, easy addin, or preferably addin with
source, that allows you to see the forms in any chosen language. That is,
the IDE can understand the language storage mechanism.

MS is still needing to be convinced on the scenario, I think. I am not sure
exactly what you are asking for here..... but the general topic is one I am
addressing at the next few VBITS.....

you can already specify an icon for apps without forms, it just takes a couple
extra steps. Add a resource file, put the icon in the resource. Set the
name of the icon in the resource file as "1" and compile.

Or with the name APPICON.

I tried that once, and I swear the resource-based icon was overwritten in the EXE
with that stoopid default form icon. I had to use an alphanumeric ID (in this case,
"AAA") to make the resource-based icon sort to the front of the list.

Later... Karl

Hi Michael --

>Or with the name APPICON.

Does that actually have "keyword status", or does it just happen to sort to the front
of the list? IOW, if I were to build an EXE that had two resource-based icons, "AAA"
and "APPICON", which do you suppose would be used?

Later... Karl

[Michael \(michka\) Kaplan]

Hmmm... no idea at all. Never tried it. :-)
