Nancy, relax! You'll do just fine...I squeaked by my first exam a few years back, and I know I've asked enough stupid questions of you and others over the years to know you're in a different league :-)

You've certainly made me re-think taking the beta. I was going to rebel and tell MS to stick their certification, because I'm pissed that my VFP certification expires the end of this month. Given the way MS has handled their VFP certification (or lack of it), I'm really wondering if giving them a couple extra hundred bucks for a piece of paper is worth it.
