Hi Gary, In reply to your comment: > >Why do you want our reasons for you writing this app >the way you did? I have definite reasons why I use VFP >and not Access, but they are irrelevant in respect to >your already having written this app... The group that uses this app is "politically charged"! Being able to defend ones position and choices is very important for future work. Thanks, Terry Harris [ ...and GMRider added: ] I absolutely agree!! I'm just curious why the developer did not already have reasoning why they used VFP - I always have that answer down pat...
