Preach it, brother! I'm not the admin, nor am I Claire (there could only one Claire!), so I'll let others admonish people like Carl to actually contribute something before insulting longtime and substantial contributors like Phil.
But Phil and Gidd are right, and it's high time for some people to get a wake-up call with a clue-by-4. ** DISCLAIMER ** This does NOT apply to about 98% of the posters to this list. This is not telling newbies "Go away". This is not an attempt to scare anyone away. My stated comments are my own. Here's the progression, for those apparently new to such processes. 1) You encounter a problem with a Remedy product. 2) You try to fix it yourself. 3) You seek help from your co-workers (if any). 4) You read the manuals and check the Remedy KB to see if there's some tidbit of information that might help with that process. 5) Repeat steps 2-4 at least until the most apparent solutions have been tried. 6) You contact Remedy Support and/or the list. 7) You (probably) receive help from Remedy Support and/or the list. The ARSList is here to help people who have first made a substantial effort to help themselves. It is intended to be an aid to, not a substitute for, learning how to do your job. While we were all newbies at some point, and we don't mind helping other newbies gain experience, there are a few people, including several from an offshore organization, who have shown a consistent pattern of asking basic questions to the list instead of taking the time to read the manuals provided with the product, and to actually grow their skills beyond that of newbie. Were I one of these few individuals, or an employee of this organization, I would hope that I would do what most posters do here - display to the rest of my professional community that I had the skills and initiative to at least learn to code my way out of a wet paper bag with a map, a knife, and a flashlight. Remedy isn't THAT hard to learn. Executive Summary: Please respect the time of those who are trying to help others by trying to help yourself first.

Carl, Do you mean that physically or verbally ? In defense of Phil, and he needs no defense, he makes a good Point. While it is often easier to ask a question on the list, perhaps that should be preceded by the requestor's research including looking at a manual once in awhile. There are more then a few listers that have a tendency to ask a question and then wait for the reply and not do any self help on their side.... YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE ! Claire, chime in here if I am to far out in left field? Doh !! Has Remedy stopped shipping pdf guides, manuals and reference materials now?
