UE's built in header grouping is working pretty good but there is still a lot of headers it is not grouping. Could you add a user defined filter so that we can tweak the grouping of headers?

I always like to run the current beta build of an application. As soon as you have a newer beta version I always upgrade. I was just looking for an easier way to upgrade.

It's great that you update the software as often as you do. Please do not stop! First suggestion: Have your program check for updates as soon as the program is launched. This way we would know if we should update the software before grabbing headers. Currently the program seems to wait up to 10 minu...

Thank you for adding this.

It looks like you have made this idea into the collections feature.

Keep up the good work Alex!

Thank you for adding this. It is a timesaver!

Any chance you could add a context menu to the newsgroup folders that would allow opening AND getting new headers?

Currently it is a two step process; 1) Open 2)Get New Headers

Just out of curiosity, why did you pick a third party library for the menus? The MS Framework seems to give the same functionality. Have you considered moving UE to VS2005? I have moved many of my programs from VS2003 to VS2005 with very little conversion problems. Keep up the good work. Your progra...

Thank you. The upper level is what I was looking for.

Please add an option to the Window toolbar menu to select folders. For example: I have 3 newsgroup folders open "A","B","C" I would like the Window toolbar menu to look like: Window New Window Cascade Tile Split new Header Window Propagate 1. A 2. B 3. C This would allo...

if you set the right file association (open with and then check the always use the selected program... checkbox) doubleclicking the icon will open the file, e.g. an external nfo viewer. That is what I do now. I have .NFO files associated to ultraedit and it works great but I would love to see it bu...

Start > Run > Calc.exe
enter 63 * 15
And you will get: 945

(or even that old fashion standalone calculator could do the trick )

LOL, that is what I did before Alex showed me the built in way.

That worked. Thank you!!

Any interest in this proposed feature?

A few feature requests: 1) Please include in the statusbar of the Task Queue the size of the entire queue in MB. Would be nice to see how much I have queued up. Could help to ensure that I didn't queue up 35GB of files and have my ISP terminate me. :wink: 2) Ability to select multiple files in any l...

it doesn't matter what language, if it calls the system browse for folder dialog it will be the same.

This is the dialog box displayed from the above code:
