Hi Shamil: Had not heard of the product yet but will check it out. It will have to go a long way to match the market penetration that FLASH currently has but I am sure it will default with IE.

Have you heard about MS SilverLight? http://www.microsoft.com/silverlight/default01.aspx It's Flash "killer". It works under FireFox and Safari from the first version as far as I have heard. It should work also under Mono on Linux in not that far future. <<< The final point is that it would be pointless to become an expert at the ndoc product as Sand Castle seems to be the heir-apparent >>> Well, becoming NDoc expert took one hour here :) I mean it's really easy to use it. But I will definitely switch to SandCastle when/if needed - I will switch because NDoc is "dead" now... -- Shamil -----Original Message----- From: dba-vb-bounces at databaseadvisors.com [mailto:dba-vb-bounces at databaseadvisors.com] On Behalf Of Jim Lawrence Sent: Friday, May 11, 2007 2:32 AM To: dba-vb at databaseadvisors.com Subject: Re: [dba-VB] VB.Net - XML comments Hi Shamil: It is the sad commentary on enterprises who have directly challenged or in the case of ndoc was just in the path of Microsoft. The Sand Castle might relate to MS's sand-box secure technology. Also see the interesting comments, at the bottom of the page, relating to the open-source community. I am in the process of replacing the code from a web-site created in SWiSH, a Marcomedia/Adobe Flash competitor as the latest offering from FireFox and Internet Explorer deem the product insecure and now many of its functions are failing. The client could have bought me the latest version of the SWiSH product but decided it would be safer to stick the industry standard product. The final point is that it would be pointless to become an expert at the ndoc product as Sand Castle seems to be the heir-apparent.

But then MS came with NDoc competitor - SandCastle - and NDoc "died": http://smccormack.blogs.com/adapdev/2006/08/thoughts_on_the.html I haven't yet used SandCastle (BTW, very strange name for software - do they (MS) mean it's so bad or sandcastles in Western culture is an allegory of something flexible, easy tunable, extendable...? http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=E82EA71D-DA89-42EE- A715-696E3A4873B2&displaylang=en NDoc I hope should work with VS2005 too. -- Shamil -----Original Message----- From: dba-vb-bounces at databaseadvisors.com [mailto:dba-vb-bounces at databaseadvisors.com] On Behalf Of JWColby Sent: Thursday, May 10, 2007 4:02 PM To: 'Access Developers discussion and problem solving'; dba-vb at databaseadvisors.com Subject: [dba-VB] VB.Net - XML comments I am using xml comments in place of my regular old comments.
