[AccessD] VBA Unbound data entry / update form

LOL, sure, I'll take their number, and if I deliver a system where they
don't have lockups, runs much faster, and has far better data integrity
and transaction history, would you be pissed if I got their business! ;)

I guess that's just a difference between the two of us, I will not make
a bad system for a client, if they want some rope to hang themselves
with, they can find someone else to give it to them.  A bad design means
that my rep is on the line when the problems pop up, and my phone/email
being flooded for problems I knew would come out of a bad design.

Besides, I really have doubts that they forced the design of the table
structure on you.  The interface could easily be made to look like what
they wanted, but have the table structure much sturdier in the
background.

LOL.  Tell that to the client.  They tell us what to do, not 
the opposite.  I recommend, they say "we want it this way", 
I say "ok".

There is a lot of "bad design" out there, and in the end we 
(or I) do what the client wants.  BTW they hire me to work 
for them.  Each of the principals make several times my 
annual wage, and their business is booming.

Do you need their phone number to tell them all about their 
"bad design"?    8-)
