I flew to the UK (Glasgow) from Germany (Düsseldorf-Weeze... SIC!) in 2005, and I only had a German temorary ID, because I had lost my other. No problem at all.

RE: But the computer says...
The RealWTF(r)(tm)(c) is that you need someone to vouch for your passport.
It really sounds like you are a Canadian, so why are they trying to impose restrictions on you that I previously only have heard in context with tyrannies?
The GDR (Socialst / Eastern Germany) did have something similar, and they also had a restriction on who was allowed to own passports.
Weird.

RE: Home Depo Survey
There is another WTF: Things can be either too bright or too dark. If they really cared, or planned to change their lighting according to customer feedback, they would have that item range from "too dark" over "ok" to "too bright".

RE: Savvysoft TurboExcel
And thats about 1000 bonus points for SavvySoft (did I get those caps right?) for actually taking the time to respond.
Kudos!

Preprocessor
Long story, short question, probably a short answer, too - which somehow seems to be eluding me. This may be due to the fact that English is not my native language.
I am currently maintaining (yeah, what else) code that my predecessor was unable to finish. Currently we are scanning a so-called "index-file" which refers to every element in a structure by using the Section-Name (which turned out to be the type) and an index (Short:1122 would be the 1122th short in the structure. The result is an output of the selected elements. Bad thing: The "section-name" does not make any difference between "short abc" and "short [MAX_ROLL][MAX_SPEED] xyz", which means that - in a structure made of these two - short:595 would return one of the shorts in the array xyz.
Which I want to change (obviously) to use the names instead, along with the dimensions etc.
This information I have to store externally. I spent about 20 minutes writing a parser that would "digest" the header-file defining the structure (which is about 250 KB, just to give you an idea).
I wrote this parser with the preprocessor in mind, which would previously strip the header-file of comments, replace the macros used to dimension the arrays, etc.
THE QUESTION:
How the frerk do I run the preprocessor - and ONLY the preprocessor - in VS 2003.NET. Is there a way to get my preprocessed header file or will I have to write "comment-stripping and replacement" myself?
