[AccessD] From your friendly moderator

Thanks a lot, Andy,

one point to remember:
since we archive the mails for later search for solutions, it will be 
difficult to dig out all the nuggets when they are scattered across all 
lists.
So, please everyone take your friendly moderators recommendation seriously 
:)

thank you
Lembit
