| That is pretty cool. I could breeze through that paragraph with no problems. Texting short-hand on the other hand drives me nuts. I can't easily read it and when people post questions using it I don't even bother anymore. Give me a bad speller over a lazy typer anyday :)Be One with the OptimizerTG |

btw By the way tan, basesd on Arnolds occasional but all knowing posts, I may start a Beatles-like ("we are more popular than Jesus") controversy. He seems be aware of all things, knows all the answers, and be generally omnipotent...Could he be...? No, I dare not say it.  EDIT:no, he edited his last post. That means he made a mistake...oh well.EDIT (again):re-reading this post I see that it could be interpreted as sarcastic and mean. That was not my intention at all. Rather than deleting my post I'll just say: Arnold, you are one of my favorite contributors...keep up the good work :)Be One with the OptimizerTG |

| This issue has caused me problems with t-sql programming. If the field name is fprodcl and I accidently mis-type it as frpodcl my brain refuses to see the problem even if I get an error from the database which says: Invalid column name 'frpodcl'. |

That means you should have named the column frpodcl in the first place.

| Brett just posted something that read:"probably with an UPDATE sa well"I guess he misstyped "as" but I read that several times and each time saw the sa and un-consciously filled in the "missing" [as]:"probably with an UPDATE sa as well"I couldn't figure out what he meant by updating SA.So I think a similar phenonenon happens with missing words I've also seen something about repeated words where the 2nd instance is on the next line. The brain ignores one of them.Be One with the OptimizerTG |
