SDT creator Doug Hennig used to say the dialog in Validate Database really offers two choices: leave me hosed or hose me worse than I already was? That was VFP 3 and maybe Validate Database is better now. I have not had occasion to use it in, well, forever.

Thanks for the info.... the person helping them was still here after the rest had gone home.... sigh....

>Lots of rumors that Cam Newton will enter the NFL next season, so maybe you'll get your QB after all. He's already a professional so may as well make it official ;-)

Can't be any worse than the junk we got now.... sigh...
