I can't believe how offended you got!

I was not at all offended. Perhaps I misinterpreted your statement that you have never used the debugger to mean that you have never needed to because your programs have never had any bugs. I know that my programs have had plenty of bugs and I would be lost wiithout the debugger to help me figure out what was going on - that is all < s >.

Then, in another post, you make it about being a man or woman. I think you should calm down and not jump to conclusions. Then, if you are woman enough, you should be kind and apologize. Your post, and subsequent remark, was rude.

I am sorry you interpreted my remark as rude. Perhaps you should also calm down and not jump to conclusions. My comment about man or woman was referring to me, not to you. I am pretty sure that was why Naomi asked if I was really Andy posting this response because she knows that I am not a man.

To end: not once in my posts have I said I don't have bugs, I just said I have never used the debuggers in any development tools.

To each his own. Whatever works for you.

I've been programming since the early 1980s

So have I.

If you have not walked in another person's shoes, you should not be so fast to judge.

I am not judging you at all. I am truly sorry that I replied to you in a manner that was meant to be a bit tongue in cheek. Obviously, since we have never met, I do not know what kind of sense of humor who have. Personally, I think you are really over-reacting here, but I would not presume to tell you how you should feel.

Peace.
