I see you, John.  Now I just have to figure out how to remit it.

I challenge all of the other consultants on this list to join me in
Supporting Database Advisors.

I am going to do the Corporate Sponsor.  I am not a big company but I
can afford $120 a year to support Database Advisors, and I certainly
receive far more than that in benefits each year, just in emergency
answers to questions I need answered "right now".  I have been a member
of this list since summer of 1997 and I can say without hesitation I
would not be where I am today without you folks.

Please join me in any way you are able.

TIA,

John W. Colby

Dear accessd at databaseadvisors.com,

Isn't access-d a great list? We're the kind of community that actually
works-we get the technical help we need free, and without the ego
trappings that you'll suffer from on other lists. I know that I find the
list invaluable, and there are several others-industry leaders-that
agree with me. Two of our members, Susan Harkins and Martin Reid,
published a Jet SQL book together in 2002, and this is what appears in
the book's Acknowledgements section: "Thanks. to the AccessD folks for
all their great advice and help over the years. If someone on that list
can't solve your problem, it can't be solved." And she's right. That has
been my experience with the list for the last seven years.

 

The list isn't a miracle of internet magic though. It costs money to run
the site and lists. So, I'll be blunt, I'm asking for donations, both
large and small so we can keep this great resource going. (Membership
isn't tied to donations. The AccessD community is free.)

 

It's a small sacrifice considering what you get! Where else can you find
people, from all over the globe, prepared to help you solve your
technical problems? Have you ever had a thread save you time? If you're
like me, that saves me money. And, just importantly, think of the times
you've helped someone else.
