Thank you Russ,
Actually I've worked with SQL very limited though, as well as Oracle
and Java, again awhile ago and limited. And I have a very logical
mind. I'm confident that I will get it, but would love some direction.
Do you have a particular spot on Google where you can get all of this
information?
I really appreciate it.
Thanks,
Marcia
