Tomasz, I sent this message to the User's List over 9 days ago. When I sent it, the problem had not been resolved, and I was getting desperate to figure things out. I have no idea why the message posted well over a week after I sent it. As you recall Tomasz, I sent you two messages via support where I specifically asked you if you were going to post my message to the User Group, as it hadn't shown up a day or more after it was posted. You did not reply to my messages, but I can certainly forward them to you (and to the user group here) again to remind you that I inquired why my post wasn't available on the user's group. I erroneously assumed you chose not to post my messages to the User Group since the problem was resolved by support a day or two after I posted to the group.
I am upset that you would state that I've resorted to "unjustified bashing" of AmiBroker. Truth be told, I publish a blog which receives over 30K hits a month, and I often sing the praises of AmiBroker. I have never mentioned your service or software as being anything other than the best. Perhaps I should alter that practice.
Perhaps, instead of speaking highly of your software, I should mention that it took me practically begging you to help me before you got involved in a meaningful way to resolve my problem. Perhaps I should mention that on your advice, I reformatted my entire hard drive, and re-installed Windows, as you thought that Windows was the problem, only to find out afterwards that the problem was a simple software setting.
