Although I am more traditionalist in terms of my user interface preferences -- I appreciate how you have a very distinct sense of style.  Whether it's your application user interfaces or your annotated screenshots, it's very distinctive.  If you ever feel like telling us a bit about how you developed it, etc. it would be interesting to read.

Thank you for your appreciation, mouser.

I do want to make things as simple and I-want-that as possible.

My approach is :
0# Be wantful
1# Do the (re)search
2# Get it : download, buy
3# If either there is nothing like-that or I can not afford to buy, I (learn to) code it.

Sorry for my bad English :)

  7.   string str_;
  8.   int i_ = 0;
  9.   int result = 0;
  10.   foreach (string name in keyIE.GetValueNames())
  11.   {
  12.       str_ = keyIE.GetValue(name).ToString();
  13.       if (name.ToLower().Contains("version") && str_.Contains("."))
  14.       {
  15.           i_ = 0;
  16.           Int32.TryParse(str_.Split(new char[] { '.' })[0], out i_);
  17.           result = Math.Max(i_, result);
  18.       }//if
  19.   }//foreach
  20.   return result;
  21. }//LatestInternetExplorerInstalled

Code: C# [Select]
  1. int[] FEATURE_BROWSER_EMULATION_STRINGS = { 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 7000, 8000, 9000, 10000, 11000 };
  2. //[REF] Internet Feature Controls @ http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ie/ee330730(v=vs.85).aspx
  3. private void UseLatestWebBrowser()
  4. {
  5.         int latestWebBrowserNumber = LatestInternetExplorerInstalled();
  6.         Microsoft.Win32.RegistryKey key;
  7.         key = Registry.LocalMachine.CreateSubKey(@"SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\MAIN\FeatureControl\FEATURE_BROWSER_EMULATION");
  8.         key.SetValue(Path.GetFileName(Application.ExecutablePath), FEATURE_BROWSER_EMULATION_STRINGS[latestWebBrowserNumber], RegistryValueKind.DWord);
  9. }//UseLatestWebBrowser
