Yup, I'm Mr. Thin-Skin. You refer to somebody else as being so inadequate that he's on the same level as me. Shame on me for taking that personally.

>My My My... thin skin. I wasn't talking to you, about you or about newbies in VFP. I was talking about 1 individual, who isn't you. So you can relax....

>>I take barbs such as these quite personally. I haven't been using VFP for very long, and I probably qualify as one who couldn't work at other than a mom&pop shop (in fact, I work for my brother's mom&pop shop!).

>>There have been other insults thrown in this forum as well, along the lines of "you're so low that ..." using, inevitably, what seems to be a reasonably accurate description of my own level of skill (at least in VFP).

>>>Not at all. I've done work for small companies too. I was referring to one person's ability and that was all. Don't read more into it :).
