[admin]

Please download this test app, create the list of props, and post it here or send it to me.

Reason: I have to find out about rumours that XY, Vista, and Win7 all use different indices. So I need one list for each OS.

Thanks!

PS, this is my list for XP (yep, they always come in the local language)

What software did you use to get the lists side by side?

What software did you use to get the lists side by side?

I copied and pasted the two lists into an editor called MadEdit and did a bit of minor editing, but I think any editor with a "column mode" can do this

Sorry about the lousy alignment but I had to do it manually as it already was in 2-col....
Update -- Did a lot of manual edit and got it looking better!

Since serendipity already posted a Vista version, I won't post one. Mine is SP2, so I'd guess that there is no difference, unless Don would insist of course...

Oh sorry if my version was out of place. I'm comparing serendipity list with the italian list... it's strange, the entries match each other on the two lists but then around line 50 and later at least in another line there's a different entry and after that the lists keep matching but not anymore entry n with entry n, n+1 with n+1 and so on but they are misaligned italian n may be like english n+1, n+1 italian matches n+2 in english and so on

Yeah, that's interesting and makes it very clear that I have to find a programmatic way to determine the indices because they appear to be OS-dependent AND locale-dependent - slightly scary isn't it? Indices are the things you would expect to be stable across versions and more so across locales...

Thanks all -- I got what I needed!

Hello Don, I really felt to double check this... I'm looking now to a notebook with Vista Business SP1 and the list is different from the Vista list of this morning, a friend sent me that one and I think it came from Vista Home Premium SP1. Now I'm personally using this notebook to try the test application and I'm carefully looking at the list and it's definitely different from the other italian one. If you want I might try to compare italian Vista Business with serendipity list which came from english Vista Business, tell me if you might need this comparison
