Is that a question, or are you saying you have
some character from the James Bond series,
..or Star Trek?

>whn we creatrd ...

'when', 'created'.. please consider using a spell checker
if unsure of the language, but please take more care.

BTW - who is 'we'? You and who else?

'please', 'that'.

As to your applet/application refresh problem, try
changing line 121, char 57, from a '.' to a ','. That
should fix it.

If not, you might try posting an SSCCE* of
failing code, and assuming you can take some
more effort to spell words, I might be able to
assist further.

Note also that the "i" should be capital "I"
when used in the word "I", or the term "I've".

see http://mindprod.com/jgloss/textspeak.html for why you should
avoid using. it.
Are you tying up the main thread? It needs to be doing nothing, not
even sleeping, to get a chance to service the enqued repaint request.
See http://mindprod.com/jgloss/repaint.html and follow links.

It seems odd you should mention that, given it is only just
over 18 hours since the OP posted. I thought 2-3 days was
a 'standard' time to wait before getting antsy over no replies.
Did somebody shift the goalposts when I was not looking?

That is too bad. I understand the (dreaded, much maligned)
Google Groups can offer usenet direct to a 'rich client' news
client. Have you tried that (or other alternative news feeds)?

I did use Forte servers which you have to pay extra for. They have the
problem a post does not show up for about 10 minutes, making it hard
to mark it for special consideration. It easily gets lost, especially
in the political newsgroups where people deliberately future date
posts. On principle I don't like paying for something I have already
paid for. The Telus overseas help desk people could not understand
what I was trying to tell them. They are trained to encourage people
to reboot their computers, routers and modems, and that is about it.
They don't even know what a newsserver is.

I tried snail mail, without response.
