Is the current Code thing (don't know what to call it) ok, or does it need pimping?

Does it need pimping?
  • It would be very nice if it displayed VBA code nicely.
  • It would be very nice if the VBA code was the default selection.

So yes! do a bit of pimping....

what does that mean, Jon? what does programming have to do with sexism?

It's about the meaning of pimp Adam. In this context Jon is liking the term "Pimp" to the practice of pimping up a vehicle, a hobby of young men. They normally refer to their vehicle as "female". Jon has taken this idea and likened the act of improving the forum "Pimping it up" to a young man improving his automobile. Hence the inference that the forum software is female...

well this is just further proof that Richard is right! I miss plenty of jokes around here. In my world, Tony, if someone soups up a car, they call it "being jacked up". But yes, I do get the joke now! thanks for educating me. What a naive thing to say by me.

You may have noticed that I rarely say anything unless I'm pretty sure of my ground. It might be a practice you could adopt?
Lately I haven't too many complaints from question askers about me being off-based. But for sure, before the latest banishment, that *was* indeed a problem to some degree. But as I told Richard, I'm a work in progress, so take it easy on me man!

We are all a work in progress! I would say that I think you are shaping up nicely! You took a bit of stick, you've got through it and come out better the other end. No one I could ask for more...
