>Now you sound like John Ryan. I did it before you and mine is bigger than yours. You have no idea when I started using .net or ado.net, or how many successful apps I have in production using .net. However, you don't need the facts, you make your own truths.

So, when did you start doing .NET ?? AFIAK, from you participation up here, it was AFTER the release of .NET 1.0. So, correct me if I'm wrong in saying that I studied ADO.NET before you wrote your first .NET app.

Since, when do you care about facts? Every fact that I throw at you, will be trashed in your 'Can't be true, because I'm using new technology' bin.
