>He asked me why one of his routines was slow. I pointed out innocently and with a willingness to be helpful that Rushmore uses the expression on the left to decide what indexes to use. He said I was wrong. A=B and B=A so therefore Rushmore must optimize the expression whether it was written as LOCATE FOR Upper(fieldname) = "washout walter" or LOCATE FOR "washout walter" = UPPER(fieldname). When I proved it by the manual and by scientific demonstration, he, like our stupidest members got mad at me. Idiots just gotta idiot.
Let me guess... he fired you on the first day? lol
