What's the full signature of SetClosingResultOfAtePolicy(...) though?

Er, not sure how that is relevant, but...
public void SetClosingResultOfAtePolicy(AtePolicy policy, TerminationType terminationType)

It's relevant if you have optional parameters 
In this case though, it looks like overkill.

Was that a suggestion, or just a context action?
If you hit Alt+Enter, R# will usually list everything you might want to do with the code under the cursor. That doesn't necessarily mean it thinks you should do it.

I wouldn't mind, but it consistently puts up a squiggly line under the code, and I've conditioned myself to treat those as warnings - i.e. something to be eliminated.

In an Excel spreadsheet, enter the following two dates:
01-Feb-1900
01-Mar-1900
In another cell, subtract the first from the second and set the formatting to general,
Look at the result.
In VBA (just because you're in Excel anyway), from the immediate window enter:
? datediff("d","01-Feb-1900","01-Mar-1900")
Check the result.
The VBA result is correct...
This goes back to my college days.

I think it's down to the problem mentioned here[^] - for compatibility's sake they replicated a bug in Lotus 123, which thought that 1900 was a leap year.

Backward compatibility is the cause of numerous problems in computing, I believe.

The sad thing is I immediately knew when I saw the subject and the dates.

Excel is horrible at a number of things. What causes me much trouble is that there are some string values, e.g. 1DEC, that I am supposed to get from a database, but because along the way from their point of origin to my source they pass through Excel, they come in as 12/1/2013 (whatever the current year is).  So then my ETL process has to detect these and correct them.

Only if your computer's clock gets reset:
NOTE: Microsoft Excel correctly handles all other leap years, including century years that are not leap years (for example, 2100). Only the year 1900 is incorrectly handled.

I am not a coder, just a person that doesn't know where to turn. I was downloading some software, and a virus encrypted all my files. I can't read any of my files, and don't know where to turn. the virus sends me to a web site where I have to pay to take the encrypting off. this is like kidnapping my files for ransom. can anyone point me to some software that would take away the encrypting. I am so frustrated that I don't know what to do. please send any information to xxxxxxxxxxxxx@msn.com. anything is greatly appreciated....

First you have to run an antivirus program - probably from boot disk - to clean the virus and identify it...
After that you may find a solution to that specific virus on the web, but it is also possible that you will not be able to recover the file ever, so if you have any backup of the important files, you may better to start over with a clean install...

You just caugth a Cryptolock Ransomware attack.
Normally the attackers send you the key to decrypt the files if you pay, in case they are important files and you don't have a backup it's your only way out. If you have a backup, run antivirus to detect were you did catch the infection, then clean your PC and restore a backup.

Isnt this one of those 'shell overwrite' viruses?
Try to get a second machine and search on line how to fix this, normally, its something like putting back an original system file or some such.

Use System Restore point facility of operating system. It will take you to last Restore point. You may loose some of your files. But I think its good to have something rather than nothing.

More like wrong site. While there may be some of us that know how to deal with a virus etc. there are probably many sites/fora that are dedicated to helping solve issues with that kind of thing

Numbered lists have annoyed me in office for years, they seem to do all sorts of unpredictable things. To the extent I prefer not to use them and manually number things.
Just got a document from an acceptance tester. He included a numbered list, with a number (identifier) in the first "word" of one item in the list. Like this (underscore is my text, 14. is the numbered item in the list)
14. 472995 more text here.
So I thought "I'll copy that ID and paste it into a query window". My selection exactly matched the underlined portion of text above. Imagine my joy when a copy/paste into SQL window (or anything else) yields...
14. 472995
So, magically, the first word of a paragraph invisibly carries along the list item number. Genius.

I am right now, experiencing some aggravation with Word 2013...I ask you to do one simple thing, spellcheck a word for me!..and you fool me, for just a few seconds, into thinking that my spelling skills (for words I can never seem to get right!) had magically improved! 'Kewl! No squiggly line...but, it still doesn't look right'...so intentionally misspell (even cp corrected an attempted pun) something as a test...no squiggly lines?  Check everywhere in the ribbon for spellcheck, (which should be on auto according to options) finally find it and it tells me that I'm 'good to go'! OK, maybe I have to put the intentionally misspelled words into sentences for it to work? Nope! 15 minutes later, and I'm going back to Word 2007 which just works!

Last week I wanted to copy item 4 of a list into an email -- nope, as soon as I paste it it becomes item 1.
|
|
|
|

Of course it does, when you paste it onto a brand new page it is the only item in the new list so naturally it becomes 1. You just can’t argue with MS logic which knows how you should be doing things.  
Just because the code works, it doesn't mean that it is good code.
