Subject:user-friendly term for "nodes"?? From:"Connie J. Whitesell" <conniejwhitesell -at- EARTHLINK -dot- NET> Date:Sun, 14 Mar 1999 13:26:30 -0500
I'm documenting a VB application used for managing manufacturing equipment
records. Can anyone suggest a better term than "root node"? I find myself
talking about the "root node icon" and the "root node label." Both make me
cringe. Any suggestions?
