Wow... I'm always surprised when someone takes such a 180% turn of what I've 
written. It's like they don't really read what I've written at all. They 
don't agree with a specific point or they read the headings. Thanks to you 
and Gustav for championing my true intent. I appreciate that.

FWIW, the people that fuss the loudest about my opinions, seem to have much 
stronger ones than mine. I always find that... interesting. And of course, 
after they trash you, sometimes personally, they get even madder because you 
don't say, "Oh my, you're so right, thank you for saving me from my folly!" 
<groan>

I love Access, always have. I'm sorry to see MS taking it in the direction 
they have, but even so, I can still admit Access' short-comings. I think 
that's just being realistic and frankly, you need to do that in order to 
give your clients/users the best of what they really need. I love Access, 
but I'm not a junkie. :)
