Application.Busy alone is not showing a busy pointer on Debian Squeeze, with

Here is the result of my thought:

have to use the current Is() functions.

The IsXXX functions confused me because when testing IsNumber("123") I

No. All IsXXX() functions that just test characters won't be changed.

Looking at www.htmldoc.org I don't think there is UTF-8 support. I just use
it for formatting tables.
It is in the Ubuntu repository (sudo apt-get install htmldoc) but I don't
know about other distros.

i will describe my thoughts about that,
i read the
http://gambasdoc.org/help/cat/constants
and i saw that a TRUE or FALSE value is a Language constant.
Also NULL is a Language constant!
So i expected from IsObject() to return FALSE when it is feed with
constants as argument.

Hi,

They mainly test the datatype of their expression. So, either the datatype is
known at compile time, and there should be no need of testing it ; either you
are using a Variant, and you can use TypeOf() to g

NULL is almost everything. So IsObject(Null) and IsString(Null) returns TRUE.
But IsDate(Null) returns FALSE, whereas Null can be a date.
So things are not very logical there.
