It's also frustrating when people post replies without quoting.
If you have a specific problem, people will either try to help or try to
point you in the right direction. The post I responded to was non-specific,
which is why I steered you toward general educational books. You made a
blanket statement along the lines of "I hope someone will help with that"
when replying to someone's suggestion that you learn more about SQL.
