Please don't tell Merlin I said so, but I don't think that his prospects look good.Speedy in this thread for me but not in use it in is a Microsoft Agent that is used in Microsoft Agent content. Hope to see you soon on the other side of the monitor!Īccompanying the letter was a pristine copy of Developing for Microsoft Agent. If it wasn't for him, I bet we would still be in Office today.Īnyway, I heard that in SAS Enterprise Guide you guys recently implemented code completion, and I thought to myself, "hey, I am in the suggestion business too!" So what do you think about giving us a new lease on life in your next release? I understand that you have already done the work once, so you probably just need to dust off a little bit of code, right? But just in case, please accept this book to help jog your memory a bit.

I knew from the start that he was just a warped, bent-out-of-shape, twisted piece of metal. Some folks even believe that the "XP" in Office XP stands for "e Xecute the annoying Paperclip."

We furloughed the agent (who appeared usually as a wizard, genie, or Peedy the Parrot) when we shipped version 2.0. Some of you will remember that in the very early versions of SAS Enterprise Guide, we introduced a unique approach to helping you to learn SAS: an animated "agent" who could suggest your next steps within your project.
