Tom your just always an ass, and theirs no reason to sit and flame a newbie programer. I mean seriusly if we flamed everyone in the world every time they asked a stupid question then damn we would have alot of little elemtery kids in tears.
Plus there is no such thing as a stupid question, those who don't ask questions are the stupid ones. If their asking, that means their trying to learn, and need a little help. Wasn't there a point in your life where you didn't "know it all" Tom, or were you born fully established? ----- Original Message ----- From: "Tom Whiting" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; <[email protected]> Sent: Wednesday, December 26, 2001 7:48 PM Subject: RE: prototypes... > >>>Please don't make fun of me Tom, because I'm new at coding > We've all been there once.
