In comp.windows.ms, Scott McLeod <scott@quotnet.co.uk> asked: > > Does anybody have any information on where I can obtain the code > listed in the MSJ. The only methods listed in the magazine refer to > BBS's, etc. within the USA, which is a bit TOO expensive when you're > in the UK. Please mail, I'll post if there's lots of interest. Machine readable versions of the code published in Microsoft Systems Journal (MSJ) is available on the information systems Microsoft OnLine, CompuServe, and GEnie, and on two bulletin boards in the US RamNet BBS (+1-212-889-6438), and ComOne BBS (+1-415-284-9151). I talked with the folks at MSJ and they expressed an interest in locating a stable UK BBS which would reguarly make the MSJ code available. If you know a sysop for such a place, email me (don't post), and I'll get you in touch with the folks at MSJ. -- lee fisher, leefi@microsoft.uucp, leefi@microsoft.uu.net {uw-beaver,decvax,decwrl,fluke,intelca,sco,sun,uunet}!microsoft!leefi disclaimer: my opinions are not necessarily those of my employer.

If someone has copies of MSJ source code, I'm sure there are a lot of people (besides myself ;-) who would appreciate seeing them posted. For now, it might be best to just post them to comp.windows.ms and comp.os.os2?

You can't assume everyone has internet ftp access.
