Welcome

to my Codekabinett

While I still intend to translate this site to English, I hardly ever find the time to actually do anything about it. So please accept my apologies for the many empty pages you'll find at this site when switching the language to English. - Sorry!

Here you'll find fragments of code and explanations from my Usenet-Postings and other occasions which I deem being possibly useful to someone else.

I have verified all the code fragments´ functionality, but everybody makes mistakes. So I may not be held responsible for the code and the corresponding eplanations being correct. Also I reject liability for all consequential damages arising out of the use of the code fragments or any other information on this website.

Nevertheless I will accept corrections and suggestions for improvement anytime. If you have some, just mail me.

Thank you very much for visiting.
