[AccessD] Poll on Access 2007

  I work strictly on a $/hr basis.  Never had any work outright stolen, but
I lost my shirt too many times on projects  and got tired of arguing with
people on what was and what not included.  Especially when they started to
complain about all the time I spent "documenting stuff".

  I've been working that way for 20 years now and like you have never looked
back.

Jim.

A power user cured me of projects by fee. The client paid me 1/3 up front as

a deposit. Then, when the application was nearly done -- the power user knew

enough that she didn't need a hand-holding interface -- they just stopped 
corresponding. I knew they were using the last version I had sent them, but 
they never paid me and stopped returning my calls and emails -- just flat 
stole the work.

Never worked by the project again.
