The IIUG: a compliment

I know we all rag on the jet-setting, in-IBM's-pocket IIUG ass all the time, so for the sake of balance, I'd like to say thanks to them for a job very well done on the new mail servers, which seem to be a LOT faster and so far, more reliable. Thanks! -- Bye now, Obnoxio "C'est pas parce qu'on n'a rien ' dire qu'il faut fermer sa gueule" - Coluche did i mention i like nulls? heck, i even go so far as to say that all columns in a table except the primary key could/should be nullable. this has certain advantages, for example, if you need to insert a child record and you don't have a parent row for it, just do an insert into the parent table with the primary key value (everything else null), and voila, relational integrity is preserved. but this is, admittedly, a bit controversial among modellers. --r937, dbforums.com
