I thought to send mine, but my copy seems to have gotten bloated, maybe from testing at some point or who knows. Just a matter of curiosity now, but I wonder how that app would behave if it's table went missing. One would think that it would discover the table is missing, inform the operator, and support recovery by offering to create a new, empty table. I assume this would be a reasonable standard for our apps as well, to first allow for a restore-from-backup, but if all else fails to offer to create a new, empty table. > Be well! E tu tambien!
