>>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.
