Yeah well thanks for the opinion and all, but with the helpful efforts
of a number of posters to this group, I've understood and solved the
problem now and everything is just lovely. I'm happy, my customer is
happy, and my customer's customer is happy. Flowers bloom, birds sing,
and I've moved on to other things.
The last time I did any serious database development work was as a
young contractor, way back in the days of DBaseII before all this SQL
malarkey existed. In those days we had tables that consisted of records
made up of one or more fields. Rows and columns where for spreadsheets.
I'm sorry if that terminology annoys you but old habits die hard, and
it least it gives you a reason to try to act all superior, eh?
