We don't care, do want hear this. I didn't start the thread. I didn't pick the usenet groups to which it goes which before you deleted them included comp.databases.informix, comp.databases.ibm-db2, and comp.databases.oracle.server. So I did not post it to the Informix group intentionally. All of which should not be construed to be an apology ... it is not. -- Daniel Morgan http://www.outreach.washington.edu/ext/certificates/oad/oad_crs.asp http://www.outreach.washington.edu/ext/certificates/aoa/aoa_crs.asp damorgan@x.washington.edu (replace 'x' with a 'u' to reply)
