Francisco, Everyone on this list needs to: 1) READ THE QUESTION. 2) RESPOND TO THE QUESTION, in a manner that is at all likely to be useful to the person asking the question. 3) Leave the lectures to a new thread of your own making. Francisco, You keep coming back to ME. I asked a simple question and got useless junk and lectures about the right way to do things. I got exactly TWO responses that were useful and indicated that the respondent even LOOKED at my question, one from Elizabeth and another from James, both of whom I thanked. Robert writes a Doctoral thesis and then inserts crap like "now you can go learn enough to even be worthy of being here" and you don't say a word. If you want to be a moderator why don't you step in at the very beginning and ask the people to respond to the questions in a useful and civil manner, at a level likely to be useful to the person. I don't need their lectures, and I don't need yours (and I don't need a Doctoral thesis). Please everybody, do not respond to the thread unless you have actually READ it and are willing to write answers on my level. And start your own threads if you want to discuss "the right way to" or "how you should NEVER" or write a Doctoral thesis, or anything else not directly related to my question. The question is not answered, though I am certainly on my way, and have started another thread to discuss it further. Thanks, John W.

All we have is bashing right then left. Nothing is being accomplished when everyone is acting like school children!! John, I don't really care if someone's response was useless to you, you don't have to respond in such a raw and rude manner. Its responses like those that begin these sort of threads, it is nobody elses fault on this list that you are frustrated. Everyone on this thread needs to take a breath and return to the topic, which I belive John earlier stated is now fixed thanks to Elizabeths code. And unless anyone else has improvements on such a suggestion this thread is now closed. __ Francisco Dba-SqlServer List Moderator On 3/27/08, jwcolby <jwcolby at colbyconsulting.com> wrote: > Yes, Robert, it was a huge waste of MY time, and undoubtedly yours. > It just shows how little you read from my posts.
