I just updated to the newest DevEx controls suite (9.2.4). When I build the MicroFour StrataFrame Inherited UI solution I get the following in the output of the build:



C:\Program Files\MicroFour\StrataFrame Source Code\MicroFour StrataFrame Inherited UI\DevExpress Extended\Dialogs\browsedialogwindow.vb(1126) : warning BC40000: 'Public Property EnumTopMostText() As String' is obsolete: 'This property has been depreciated and is no longer used. Use the TopMostText and TopMostValue properties on the SearchFieldItem class instead.'.



I have seen this message before and I was wondering if I should correct it in the code or you have already noted it and will take care of it in a future release.



Thanks!

Bill

Just move forward as this will not effect you on the DevExpress controls. So you will be fine.

Roger!



Shouldn't the word used in the message be "deprecated" rather than "depreciated"? What's an "I" between friends?

Actually, no.  It is funny to me how this one word comes up.  It used to be the other way and another SF user made a comment, so even though both words are actually valid in this case, we went ahead and changed it....now you have mentioned that it should be the other way.  So in short, we can't win on this one word.

We actually got an English professor involved on the grammatical use of this one word and the resulting answer was, "Either word is fine and is valid within this context."

Just FYI

Depreciate relates to value and deprecate relates to obsolescence. But, I am not an English professor.

I don't know what it is about this word, but it seems to strike up emotions...personally, I don't care.  As long as the point is conveyed, then it suits me fine.  Heck, I was OK with "I wouldn't use that if I were you!"

That's perfect! Reminds me of "Princess Bride" when enraged Prince Humperdinck declares to his bride-to-be, "I wouldn't say such things if I were you!"

My wife loves that movie and my daughter has become quite the fan too.
