The topic is Integrating Mail With VFP Applications. Description: POP? IMAP? MAPI? VIM? MHS? Ted sorts through the slew of acronyms and answers the question: "How hard is it to send an email?" The answer is... well, you'll have to come to the session to find out. A brief introduction to the acronyms, how e-mail works, whether there is a hyphen in email will be covered. The main focus will be using Visual FoxPro to send and receive e-mail, using wwIPStuff, custom controls, or Outlook. Pros and cons of each method will be reviewed. How hard is it to send email? We also have complimentary copies of Code Developer Magazine for all attendees! 2) ** January VB Learn User Group Meeting ** We alerted you to a pair of VB Learn User Group meetings last month. Unfortunately the scheduled speaker got stranded by the snow in New Hampshire in last month. Consequently the VB Learn January and February meetings are the originally scheduled December and January talks. Please note the new Microsoft location and the phone number in case of a snow cancellation. We are pleased to have Jim Wilson, a speaker at VBITS and other conferences, present for us at our December and January meetings. ----------------------------------- 3) ** February VB Learn User Group Meeting ** User Group: VBLearn Group Date: Monday, January 21 Time: 7:00pm Location: Microsoft Corporation 201 Jones Road 6th Floor Waltham, MA 02451 Speaker: Jim Wilson Topic: What is XML? There's a lot more to XML then a bunch of angle-brackets. It's an entire suite of technologies including XSL, XPath, XML Schema and the emerging technologies of SOAP & Web Services. In this session, we'll review the fundamentals of XML document structure, examine system design issues and identify where each of the XML technologies fit in an overall solution. ----------------------------------- User Group: VBLearn Group Date: Monday, February 18 Time: 7:00pm NEW Location: Microsoft Corporation 201 Jones Road 6th Floor Waltham, MA 02451 Speaker: Jim Wilson Topic:: XML Programming with VB and VB.NET Building on our discussion from December, we will examine the issues of XML programming in both VB and VB.NET. We will start by working with the DOM and SAX API's in VB 6, with a focus on understanding the situations where each is best suited. We will then look at the new XML programming model exposed by VB.NET. ----------------------------------- -Arnold You can manage your subscription to this list (including subscribing or unsubscribing) by visiting http://www.blu.org/mailman/listinfo/foxpro. _______________________________________________ Foxpro mailing list Foxpro@blu.org http://www.blu.org/mailman/listinfo/foxpro
