2008 NECH screen capture?

[celtic]

I am contemplating buying an '08 NECH on CD/DVD [how ever it comes] to replace my '02....even though NJ is on the '05 :-?

I'm wondering, is the '08 edition similar in layout to the '02?

Here are some shots of my '02:

Does the '08 [or even the '05] look like the '02 as far as layout?

It certainly is similar to the 2008 NEC CD -- I don't have the handbook.

I have the 2008 code book and handbook on CD and both are similar in layout to your screenshots.

The difference between my '08 NEC and the '02 NECH are pretty obvious...it's like driving a bus with only 3 tires:

Is the '08 NECH more like this [my '08 NEC] or that [my '02 NECH] ?

Celtic my 08 has the individual sections. I will post a picture shortly.

Sure does:

...but only those with mad skills know how to grab JUST the image ..

..also has Notes and ...

...Bookmarks

AND it even has a "built in" highlighter!

This why I say: Having just the NEC is like driving a bus w/o all four wheels.

That is so cool. I personally love books. Except when I cant find something in the NEC. But anyways I like the feel in my hands. I like to read on line as well but I find my eyes get more tired!

Are there any reasons why having the book on a CD for the computer an advantage rather than having just the book?

Is it an easy process of copy and pasting a page to put on this website for others to learn?

What are some advantages?

What are some advantages?

For starters...it's way cool!


I like a book too, but for speed and searching ~ you can't beat the computer edition. I have hard copies of the NEC [every code cycle going back to '93] and every other code cycle from '02 back to '96 [not very many].

Sometimes when you have to go "nose to nose" with someone, both parties looking at the same document helps ~ copy and pasting is the trick. Print only what you actually need to win the debate :wink:


Copying and pasting is child's play...every adult should know how!:smile:

Thats cool, I just didn't know if the program had any locks on it that prevented you from coping or pasting. I know some of the programs make it where you can not duplicate it or print it and things of that nature.

Well good night, I have some ditch digging in the morning:smile:

The trick to any lock is to be a better locksmith :wink:

Have fun!
