      XPost: alt.windows7.general       From: address@is.invalid              Newyana2,              > It's more practical with these issues if you explain what       > you're trying to accomplish.              I thought I did that in the "the problem is" paragraph. Did I forget to       mention something ? If so, what ?              I even summed it up in the "question:" paragraph.              > Then people can brainstorm the whole process.              No thanks. I already did that.              > It also helps to weed out preconceptions,              It also attracts a number of people who have no problem replacing my       question with what they decide I /really/ wanted to know - and than waste       their and my time with solving problems I never had (and get all pissed-off       when I mention it).              But, if you think you know I have a preconception somewhere in there than I       would like to hear it.              > like the man who's trying to figure out how to avoid getting       > his newspaper wet, wtihout explaining that the problem is       > a spraying kitchen faucet and not rain.              :-) I've had it way to many times the other way around. Including people       questioning my decision to have a newspaper with me to begin with, and than       going off on tangents to what they think the best replacement for it is or       even how stone tablets where way superior. :-(              To re-phrase my initial post :              I've noticed that WorPad refuses to open a document (with new content) when       it already has that document open (but is showing the old, now gone(!)       content).              Is there a commandline switch to override that behaviour and either open the       document in a new window, or (preferrably) re-load the document.              Thats all I need to know. If that doesn't exist I'm going to work my way       thru a few alternatives myself first.              Regards,       Rudy Wieser              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
