I am hoping to make CF or at least CF 8 a better product too. So the less time I spend here working on missing periods and removing or keeping an "and" in a sentence the more .NET wins. You are only hurting yourselves. My suggestion is head over to the .NET boards and start pointing out things like this to them. Hopefully the next version of .NET will have perfect grammar and a relatively worse off product and the flow will come back here and say comments like "Great grammer, but poor product".
You sentence was as close to being the opposite of what I was saying and that is no misinterpretation. If you missed up, then please just say so. "I meant to say, then how would you use ODBC?" Otherwise I stand by my earlier statements. It was a stupid comment on my part anyway. On 7/29/06, James Holmes <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > For the record, this is exactly what happened.
