[AccessD] OT-Old Times...BEU

Hi Reuben
Nice bit of reminiscing. That project was really enjoyable I agree. First
and only time I ever did anything long-range collaborative and it was great
fun. Mustn't forget the constructive criticism from such as Gustav and JC
too. I'm still pretty proud of that piece of software and, amazingly, still
use it almost every week. Back when Access seemed to have a future <sigh>

Good to hear from you.

Cheers and take care

Andy

Hi Reuben:

Nice to see you are still in the business. Getting close to the big '40'.

So what line of business are you into now?

Jim

I'm not around the list much anymore, but was reminiscing yesterday...
I was cleaning out old MS Outlook folders I don't need anymore and came
across a folder for the BEU.

I have nearly every email we sent as a team and it was quite a trip going
thru them.  It was interesting to read how the ideas developed making the
BEU.  It was also eye opening to see how little I knew back then.  Reading
that yesterday I don't know how I was able to produce code that still works
today - except I had some great teammates.
And then to realize it's been 11 years and 9 months since we started that
work.  I was only 27 - my kids were just babies.

Anyhow, I'd like to mention a few people and just say how much I enjoyed
that experience and thank them for putting up with a pup that didn't know
what the hell he was doing...

I'm sure I've left out a few, but these three names are burned into my
memory forever.
It was fun reading those messages yesterday and working with you all those
years ago.

BTW, I have 2,840 total emails stored (and this doesn't count the online
meetings we held).
First email was Feb 8, 2001
Last one dated Dec 28, 2005
Version 1 went live on June 19, 2002
Version 2 was released on Oct 14, 2002.

And honestly I'm not sure where it is now.
Anyhow, it was a real pleasure.
