Sorry to offend you. I thought you didn't know how people were getting
here. I'll try not to clarify anything for you in the future.

I get your point Robin. And, as I said, I am aware of it. If you don't
like my phrasing, feel free to comment to the OP's yourself. I don't need
your corrections/comments.

You said this:

We get a lot of questions mis-posted to this newsgroup (because many
people don't know what "dotnet" is)

While that may or may not be true, that's not why they are posting their
message here. They don't see "dotnet" anywhere in the description. That
was my point.

I'm aware of that Robin, which is why I advised told the OP that this
wasn't the right group and to look for another one.

Scott,

We get the mispostings because these people are coming in from
Microsoft's Discussion Groups website. When they post a message, it
doesn't show the group name in the dropdown list, it shows a general
description. All groups that end in ".general" show up solely as
"General Discussion". Guess which group the first "General Discussion"
in the dropdown posts to...

The Windows entries are on the bottom of the dropdown list, and some
people don't get that far, they just stop at the first "General
Discussion" they see.

Annoying, isn't it?

Of course it matters! You are in the wrong place for this question.

This newsgroup is NOT for general windows discussions. It is for
general questions about programming applications using Microsoft's
.NET programming environment. Your reply is like saying that it
shouldn't matter that you are in a pet store, you just want a
haircut!

We get a lot of questions mis-posted to this newsgroup (because many
people don't know what "dotnet" is) and we need to keep this group
focused on what it is for. Just try posting in a Windows newsgroup
(usually at the bottom of the newsgroup lists).
