Actually, I wanted to say thanks to Duane Hookom and CraigH. Between the two
responses it took me a whole 20 minutes to create the database that I wanted
and it works GREAT! As for the comments from Steve. How dare you assume
anything about me. I am not lazy but I AM a one person shop and don't always
have the time to spend looking up answers that I know the knowledgable people
on this site have obtained over the years. I thought this site was used for
that purpose.

I would like to point out, however, that if anyone is LAZY it would be you.
Are you too lazy to set up a website and get good honest work for yourself.
Seems you visit these boards trying to drum up work and get answers for
yourself. Kind of like the pot calling the kettle black, huh?

She said nothing of the sort. Rather, she said she has accepted e-mailed
databases in the past. If you can't understand that, there is no chance you
will understand a client's requirements. As for offering a few free
suggestions as a rationale for soliciting money for your questionable
"services" in other postings, you alone stumble down that road.

Your attacks on the OP are beyond pathetic. It is a new low, even for you,
which is saying something. It also suggests the manner in which you would
interact with clients, which may be part of the reason you have none.
It's your lucky day!!!

If you can't solve your problem on your own after looking at Duane's sample
DB, Gina Whipp says she will implement a solution for you for free. All you
have to do is send her your database.

So why go through the agony of doing it yourself, just send your database to
Ms. Whipp. Isn't that what you wanted in the first place?

Checked out the website (thanks) . I would think that someone that spends so
much time distributing "TIPS" from this newsgroup would have a rather
extensive tips page on their website. He should at least pull down the page
until he can populate it.

I just didn't appreciate his assumption that I either didnt' know what I was
doing so I needed his extensive knowledge and $help or that I must be lazy
because I was sarcastically taking him up on his "free" offer. What a
vulture. I not only finished the database quickly using the tips that some
were so kind as to write in but I did it without the $$$help$$$ of $teve.
How's that for stupid and lazy $teve?

To others.... please never underestimate your own creativity and the
kindness and knowledge sharing of (most of) the people on this site.

Thanks John

Bruce,

He knew that.. he's just being $teve. I am just sorry the OP had to get
caught up in his foolishness, though I see he is doing a great job of
holding his own!

Duane Hookom

DRoads,
I'm glad to hear you got this working for you.

I am generally okay with accepting a zipped MDB by mail to work on for free.
This has happened many times over the past 10+ years that I have been
providing support here. I always attempt to resolve programming/development
issues in the public news groups first.

If the public forum doesn't work out for some reason, I sometimes volunteer
my off-line time at no cost. I believe Gina and many others will do the same.
This is not an invitation for anyone to email a file to any of us un-invited.
If you email most of us off-line/un-invited and ask us to do your work, you
can expect to get an estimate back for our work (or a polite refusal).

DRoads, thanks for the entertaining replies and feel free to ask as many
questions as you like ;-)

If only these groups were as popular with him as his "blog". Still, it's
quiet for now, pehaps he's gone back under his stone.

I sometimes find that the hard part of looking something up is figuring out
how to phrase the search. The more I learn the more able I am to search out
the answers. That being said, the forums continue to be a great resource.
Glad to hear it worked for you (and quite efficiently at that).
