1998 was my first Access project as well. As fate would have it, I'm back with that same client revamping/rewriting a signifigant portion of this system - mainly because someone else came behind me to 'improve' it and didn't finish the job. As I go through the spaghetti code and disasterous form design I keep thinking "who PROGRAMMED this mess!?!?" Then I realize it was me (heh). I wonder - 5 years from now will I return to this same client and think the same thing??

Rate for first time WOW! 1998, I can't believe it has been that long. I still feel so inexperienced. Have you ever gone back and looked at something you did when you first started - you think - I can't believe I did that! I remember printing the screen for reports & had the navigation buttons showing on the form when printed. Oh, hey, it has been more than a tiny part - I would say all of it! I can honestly say I never would have been able to do anything without everyone's help & patience. Just curious - what was my first question? -----Original Message----- From: Gustav Brock [mailto:gustav at cactus.dk] Sent: Wednesday, April 02, 2003 11:28 AM To: accessd at databaseadvisors.com Subject: Re: [AccessD] OT Got it: Was...

Maybe we all added a tiny tiny part to your success (nice thought anyway)? In my nicely cleaned archive I located more than 100 messages addressed to you from numerous list members - the first message, by coincident, from myself in October 1998 in the days of the old list of MT Group! /gustav > Amazing!
