And how do you grab all the indexes, including that new one you added last week? And the free tables as well as the ones in the DBC. And don't forget the captions and stored procedures in the DBC. I mean, how hard can it be? Selling utilities to programmers is hard, because they all COULD do it. And after a dozen revisions or so, including some teed-off customers, they will have ironed out most of the bugs. Until the next one. Or you could pay someone else to do it for you, mark it up and charge it to the customer. -- Ted Roche Ted Roche & Associates, LLC http://www.tedroche.com _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://mail.leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://mail.leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/cacw6n4tgjqxzqdn-jfcvnd80r4y25subwupkt6uzsdcsynr...@mail.gmail.com ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
