I don't know when I first joined, but as Darren mentioned, it wasn't hosted
by the members...I believe it was MtnGroup at the time.

Hi all
Ditto to Steve
"1999.  At that time the list being dominated by John Colby, Jurgen
Welz, Lembit Soobik, William Hindman, Arthur Fuller, among others"

Sometime in 1999 I think
The list was 'hosted' somewhere else and then we 'became' AccessD after
some hosting ructions
Now...here we are - alive and kickin'

I have said it before and I will say it again
I could not have gone past a Simple Select query were it not for the
people on this list
(As well as the web pages of Gurus we all know so well) (I did
everything and I mean everything in Macros)
The willingness to share complex and very hard fought over code as well
as a genuine desire to 'solve'
or offer solutions to the myriad of issues that come up, is truly
remarkable in this age of copyright, Intellectual property and
all the rest of the commercial "protect thyne A**" world. Testimony to
this list's generosity.

I remember getting my first 'Browse' dialogue box to work WOW - it
actually opened and returned a file name WOW
I remember thinking I can interface with Windows - WooHoo - I showed my
(Mostly unimpressed) Wife who went on muttering
something about being a propeller-head. Go figure.
She -the unimpressed -refers to you guys as "Your nerd mates on the
List" :-)) (Love it)

Not to mention the friendships - Even had a Mad Pommies and his charming
and beautiful Wife come over to Oz. We hooked up
and have dinner - with my Wife and I. (Hi Andy)

Not to mention the people I harass on the phone - Hi Andy - Stuart -
Kath et al

Love this list

See ya

Darren
