Wow. All these "MVP this...MVP that....If only you could be an MVP......As an MVP, I........

It gives me the feeling that I should be so honored to talk to someone with such a title. From now on I will begin any question to an MVP with an offering, much as if I am asking Don Corleone for a favor.

Please Kevin, sir, accept this offer of some fresh California avocados. I am having trouble getting the right row to display on my subform I use to edit records. If I am not imposing on your time, could you please offer some suggestion as to how I can be sure I am using the correct row index when searching for a row in a data table?

Again, I thank you for your kindness in allowing me to ask you a question.

>The line, "Too bad you are not an MVP - you could take over for him.", coupled with a previous quote of "IMO, that is part of the reason that I have been awarded the MVP award since 1999"....it has the feel (IMO) of MVP status being waved in the air.

I always try to be very generous with my presentations, offerings, and time at these events - but I think the recent events will make me want to do even more.
