code examples and copyright

[mackrackit]

as the original code has been posted in a public forum on a voluntary basis and thus almost "public domain"

No almost to it.. It IS public domain.
If someone has some "super secret" code they do not want anyone else to use then they should not be posting it.

BUT...
If you use any of the drabble I post and you make a million on it a six pack of Mountain Dew coming my way would be nice.

And...
Along the line of what Keith said.
What comes around goes around. If you do not help someone here help someone some place. That is how you pay back.

Interesting comments, and thanks for all the input.

I must admit that being a slow learner I tend to be requesting more assiatance than I've given to others, but I do input where possible, and on the odd occasion have helped fellow neebies with some of the more basic issues and passing on the wisdom gained from the guru's here. I therefore agree totally with contributing to the forum, and intend to post up the full code of a project I'm currently working on, which has been a joint venture with several board members, and includes several code examples as bases on which to adapt to my needs.- Credits will be included and links to this forum added to the code header.

If I did end up turning this into some big money spinner, then there would be more than a six pack on its way to all those involved
