RE: RE: pushpins

[Sean Brierley <seanb_us -at- yahoo -dot- com>]

Actually, the control in question is a third-party
one, not a Microsoft one <g>. Not that our customers
need or care to know that. And, not that I care to
change my terminology based on the third-party
development software du jour. Sticking to MMoSfTP ver.
2, Chicago, and my own list of exceptions keeps me
busy enough. <g>

Cheers,

Sean
