I think Joe may realize a couple things: 1) He doesn't know enough about the system to criticize it. 2) The IT people in his UV shop didn't know much either.
Many Pick guys get into Pick because they know their business market but not much about technology, and Pick makes it easy to write software without being a real programmers. Once people do get into Pick, a high level of technical proficiency can be attained quickly - not always the same technical skills as in other areas but the job gets done nonetheless. Many people do branch out to understand how mainstream technologies integrate with Pick, but not everyone. As Dave says, when people don't extend beyond the basic skills it doesn't mean the technology itself is deficient. I think this will be my last comment on the topic. Tony Since people are posting quotes, the following came to mind: "Mankind have a great aversion to intellectual labor; but even supposing knowledge to be easily attainable, more people would be content to be ignorant than would take even a little trouble to acquire it." -Samuel Johnson (1709 - 1784), "I refuse to get into a battle of wits with someone who is unarmed." -Unknown -- u2-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.oliver.com/mailman/listinfo/u2-users
