<P><FONT face=Arial size=2>To the good folks of AccessD and Access-L:</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT face=Arial size=2>I am retiring from full-time employment at the
end of this month. Today is my last scheduled day of work. I
will be signing off from these lists in a few hours.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT face=Arial size=2>I want to say that both of these lists have been
very educational for me. Even though I was an experienced Access
developer when I joined both lists several years ago, I have learned a lot
from these lists. Nobody can know everything about all aspects of
Access development, so even experienced developers like me learn of things
that I have never had the opportunity to try.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT face=Arial size=2>I also want to say to all the lurkers on these
lists, jump in and try to answer some of the questions. One of the
best ways of learning about something is trying to explain it to somebody
else. One of the nice things about trying to answer questions on these
lists is that nobody will flame you if you are not totally correct in your
response. You may get some less than polite responses (I have been
guilty of this more than once), but nobody will call you stupid or
worse. So volunteer an answer when you think you may be able to help
somebody that needs some help.</FONT></P>
