Thanks!
It might also be useful to add some links to any resources on IP2007 -> IP2003 backwards compatability...

Hi, It's been a while since I posted. As you may imagine, July wasn't the most popular month
Hi, all those articles are great and so is the book by Hagen Green and Scott Roberts. But having developed a simple form with managed code that copies ContactSelector subtrees I see discrepancies in the behaviour of IE 8 and FireFox/Chrome.
Where IE fails to copy (seemingly ignoring the code), Firefox does it twice. I hope to get some guidance on that from you guys.
Thanks in advance.
