Part 8 (Previewed Formats and File Info Tips tab) is up now. Only one tab left on the Configuration, and hopefully that tab will be finished tomorrow evening.

http://vbatips.wordpress.com/2007/09/09 ... -tips-tab/

I will hopefully (if I got the time tomorrow evening...) also do a tiny revision of the previous published chapters.

After that I will describe file operations in XY...

j_c_hallgren, if you got the time :) I would really appreciate if you check the english in the tutorial (you are also welcome to submit any feedback on the contents... )

ungus/ulrik: I'll try and check it when I can...my time will be a bit more available now as the summer rental season is almost over, and that's when I have to work outside more...of course, now I'll need to do some repairs but I should have some time at night to review...

I'll be more than happy to help make those as perfect as possible! :D

Besides, at some point, I may need some help translating some Swedish documents into English, and you may be of use for that.... :wink:
Still spending WAY TOO much time here! But it's such a pleasure helping XY be a treasure!
(XP on laptop with touchpad and thus NO mouse!) Using latest beta vers when possible.

Great, man! :D

You could explain why some paths in the destinations list have icons, and some not. (Because they are not existing in the current host system -- typical situation for a portable file manager)

One can also state relative paths (..\..\blah\blub\), did you now?


Hey, do you backup this stuff somewhere? I hope that blog is a safe data storage...

Thanks!

I will update the 10th part soon, and I will cover relative paths
:)

I have done simple backups myself...in case their should not work...

Thanks!

I've just tested the new beta, looks that I have to rewrite the Configuration parts :wink:

PS. I will wait a while to rewrite it until the next official release will come out...
