• I'm definitely for that. Although I can certainly understand why some people might be interested in all the fancy relational and hierarchical calculus, some folks just want a simple explanation so they can build something and maintain it.

    I did something a while ago and I'm going to convert it to an article (it's finally boiling up to the top of my list of things to do). I don't want to post what I have here because it's not ready as an article, so I'll make you a simple trade... I'll send you what I have if you provide an honest (even if it's bad) critique on the methods and general direction before I turn it into an article, please.

    And don't be such a stranger on these forums. It's a great place to learn new things and maybe even vent a little. I've learned more by solving other people's problems than I could have if I did 1,000 tutorials or had a 1,000 job history.

    RBAR is pronounced "ree-bar" and is a "Modenism" for Row-By-Agonizing-Row.
    First step towards the paradigm shift of writing Set Based code:
    ________Stop thinking about what you want to do to a ROW... think, instead, of what you want to do to a COLUMN.

    Change is inevitable... Change for the better is not.
