[AccessD] Quiet week?

  Thanks Charlotte.  Didn't think I'd ever see it at this point.  Been a
long time in coming<g>.

  John Vinson and I used to co-manage the CompuServe MS Access forum (when
you were at Woody's Access Lounge) and he's had his for a number of years,
but when CompuServe shutdown he moved to the newsgroups and was a lot more
visible.  I moved to EE, which was basically a closed community. And then
Microsoft wasn't too happy with me (and some others) over the '95 beta, but
that's another story.

  Hasn't really bothered me though as I really just like to help  people.
I've been answering Access questions now for over sixteen years and have
written a few articles.  I'd like to write a lot more, but just haven't
found the time.

  In any case, it came as quite a bit of a surprise, which was nice.
Here's hoping I can keep meeting the standard; lots of very bright and hard
working folks in that crowd!

  Thanks again.

Jim.
