There are no rules as such if you wrote it, even if others helped you you.
However, if you were using a substantial piece of code that someone else provided, or you downloaded, you should contact the author and seek their view on it. Public Domain code does not mean that you absolutely cannot use it in a commercial app, there would be no commercial apps if that were the case, but as I say, you need to make a judgement call on all code provided to you. -- HTH Bob (there's no email, no snail mail, but somewhere should be gmail in my addy) "JustLearning" wrote in message ...

Here is a web site that will give you an idea of what intellectual property,
which is what you use when you develop code, is all about. http://www.nationaltechcenter.org/le...bcopyright.asp "JustLearning" wrote: Where can i found out about these rules and regulations?

That's a fairly decent overview.
But if you are working for someone else and you were on their time, or you used your employer's computer, and even if at home on your own time on your own computer you still may have ceded your rights to your employer. To avoid ambiguity most employees are asked to sign over their rights as a condition of their employment. If there is any ambiguity that is where lawyers come in, and that is what they thrive on. You are very ambiguous about the involvement of others. "JLGWhiz" wrote in message ...
