There are only so many ways to do some things in code, so hacks can always be open to "stolen" accusations. I'm sure many hacks on here "borrow" bits of code from other hacks (and from vb itself) I know some of mine have, and I know others have used mine (at least one hack here is a straight copy of one of mine with nothing more than a few variable name changes

). People don't re-invent the wheel.
