Hi Bonnie

No offence taken... I appreciate all your very helpful replies.

Just sometimes it seems easier to post a question, where there may or may not be a simple reply.. I just dont know beforehand and could go off spending hours testing stuff out ,that onereply would give me the answer in a minute that would take me maybe hours.

An Example:

A recent thread (I think it may have gone onto about 20 entries) was enquiring why you cant say: If (c1 > c2) { Do Something}

Now , at the end of the day I think the answer was a One liner ,but it took quite a bit of time to arrive at it.


There just seems to be an awful lot to .net compared to VFP and when one is starting out, it makes sense sometimes to take the shortest path between two points !!

Regards,

Gerard

I have never used this stuff myself, and the only reason I can answer your questions is because I just tried it to see what it would do. Certain types of questions lend themselves to simple exploration ... this is one of them. =)
