Well ,you're probably infringing on some type of copyright infringement. Every source file I've looked at from msdn had a copyright on the top. But because Microsoft is sharing this code as library documentation, you're safe to use to generate ideas and to apply the library properly. Just look up the methods the sample uses and you should have a pretty good start to writing your own code and it's likely to be better than the sample code. Sometimes, however, you might write code using the library that you won't release. You're safe, then, I think to copy and paste.Quote:
