[AccessD] Freelancing

I would be kinda curious to know what a CV like this is worth on an hourly
paid basis   ;-)

I agree with you, Drew, but sadly I also agree with Mark Simms. I have
revised my CV to talk about Office Automation and VBA rather than just
Access and SQL Server. I think I have written some cool code that combines
all of them (well, not PowerPoint, but its object model is easy, should the
need arise). I am close to expert in the Word and Excel object models, and
expert in the Access model, but I have changed my CV to reflect VBA
expertise rather than experience in Access (which is definitely my strong
suit) along with SQL Server (also a strong suit). This admittedly narrows my
potential client base but I am willing to live with that. Meanwhile I am
learning RoR (Ruby On Rails) and Python and Steel. and when I feel confident
enough in these, I shall add them to my skills-set on my CV. Currently, I'm
still learning, so that point is still a few months away.
