The sad fact is that our business is technology. We can get far more done today than ever because of the technology available but it does require constant learning to allow us to use it. A simple example is virtual machines and virtual private networks. I use a VM hosted on my server here at the office with a VPN to host a database back end. I install an Access FE out on a computer somewhere in the world and it uses a data store over the internet in my office. That is cool stuff. It was not easy to set up but now that it is up it just works. John W.
