Phil posted some code to Split Pascal/Camel Cased Strings a few days ago. We had an offline discussion on doing this via RegEx.

Some of the tools in the Firefox Web Developer Toolbar extension require that you install Firefox with the Developer's Tools option. If the "View Style Information" menu option is disabled this means the Dom Inspector is not installed.

I'd been wondering about the FROM/WHERE/SELECT syntax in DLINQ. I'm used to the SQL SELECT/FROM/WHERE approach. Turns out that I'm late to this party - this was (of course) discussed at the PDC, and has been under some discussion since then.

TransferBigFiles.com makes it easy to send files that are way to big for e-mail - up to 1GB. You upload the file(s) via their website and enter the recipient's e-mail (and some optional things, like a password). The recipient gets an e-mail with a download link and has five days to pick it up. It's a free service from the good folks at Axosoft.
