DriveMapAdd

I find I often map my T: drive as 'temporary'.  Wanting to make UNCs frequently remapped easier to remember~access--I envisioned an applet that would store these for reuse. This was the result. It maps T: for an UNC or other reference passed on the command line(or dropped on it).

It stores ten previous references -- if called it without dropping or passing a filename -- it defaults to current T: drive with option to change it to any item from the dropdown list.

strikethrough.bas

I find this macro quite helpful. When going through a document item-by-item -- I highlight a piece of text then execute 'strikethrough' (it's on my customized menu).

RDP_SESSIONS

When I have more than one monitor available -- I place RDP sessions on that area of my desktop. In this case, the taskbar isn't available. I created this applet to allow easy switch between multiple RDP sessions.

Opera Behaviors

Interesting Opera behavior.  When you grab a tab and pull it
outside Opera -- it 'unlinks' from the browser into a new
window.

Opera 10.10 -12 improvements...

I've looked at Opera and it is a knockout.
Very clean interface, HTML 5 support, fast, etc.

Webfocus & Excel

The default format extentions for:
#1 EXL2K ~ htm
#2 EXCEL ~ xls

Tradeoffs:

xls opens natively in Excel; however, output will not preserve totals in your report.

htm preserves totals - but *is* recognized by Excel on open.

Decided to use option #1 put the files out as htm.
