Thanks for the thoughts Gregg.........
I'm not one to jump ship just because someone else "doesn't support" my
methods........sometimes I just go along without their participation in my
life.......such as Utube for example.......I personally would rather not
have Utube anymore than to change Browsers at their coersion. My car is a
1989 model....."they" don't support it any more either, but it gets me to
work EVERY day at 30MPG, so I'm not about to buy a new one just because I
run into some minor problem. Our IS dept says they "don't support programs
written in Excel".....but in their case is simply means that they don't know
how to. I supply users with working Excel program solutions to their ORACLE
problems every day. And, you can still buy brand new computers today with
Win XP installed, even past Vista and Win7.
So, enough "soaping".......thanks for taking the time to offer your
thoughts.
Vaya con Dios,
Chuck, CABGx3
