Amen to that! I've had clients try that on, but I usually remind them that *they* are paying *me* to know what I'm doing, and unless they make their livings developing databases, I'd appreciate it if they would let me get on with it. What comes out should be what they want. What lies underneath is strictly my domain. Charlotte Foust -----Original Message----- From: John W.

This is a concept that can only be taught through experience. Management NEVER tells me what to name things (unless it is to use a codified naming convention to match their enterprise programming model), but may have free reign in the user interface.If they want to get down to the level of telling me what to name tables they are going to be trouble I don't even want to deal with and I make a hasty exit.
