    Your answer has not helped one tiny bit.
    You know very well what defines "share".
    Something which for some unknown reason you do not like doing.
    You just like to keep things to yourself.

    Excuse me? Of course my response didn't help since it wasn't an answer it was a request for clarification. Share has multiple meanings. Those meanings require different answers to the question.

    You could have meant running a program from a remote computer or you could have meant transferring program files. You also could be referring to sharing data files that have automation like Excel or Access.

    So, no I didn't know what YOU meant by share. That's why I asked you to define it.


    As for not sharing, I have over 32,000 examples of my willingness to share my knowledge and expertise. Now you can apologize.

    If you are planning on sharing copyrighted software then that is illegal.

    Bad form, dude, and from an "expert" on the forum? An intelligent answer comes from understanding the intent of the question. When that's not clear, we ask.

    Right? At least that's what a "Good" expert does.

    Scott could have just said, "Upload it to megaupload.com" and that TOO would have probably been useless.

    Where's the hostility coming from? At your level here on the forum, it's completely inappropriate.

    TIP OF THE DAY:
    "The only "truly dumb" question is the one you SHOULD have asked and didn't."

    So, reign in the weird attitude, explain what it is you're trying to "share", to whom, and with what level of "freedom", and Scott (all of us) may have a much more informed answer.

Simple toy [ 2 Answers ]

Hi! I need the name to a simple toy that was around in the 1970's. It's a bb size ball bearing encased in a clear plastic cylander. The idea of the toy is to make the bb travel up a spiral ledge and drop into a notch at the top of the spiral simply by using wrist action and a steady hand. Thanks.
