Hi Phil

Nice editorial, sort of follows on from your piece "Never offend a captive audience"

Personally I am happy to receive the criticism.

Anyone interested in criticising my code - please feel free to take a shot. If it is cheap, duck. If constructive, I am grateful for the chance to learn, and take the knowledge so gained to the next task with thanks.

Those arrogant enough to think that they were perfect when they started out in IT, I would rather not know; if they can't accommodate the lack of experience in others, I have no time for them. For those who think they are perfect now, good luck.

For the rest of us, well I for one know that I still have much to learn. That is why I use SQLServerCentral. That's why I like to see a better way of doing something than the way I that came to mind for me. I enjoy the learning.

I rarely get the opportunity to criticise, but my biggest bugbear is a lack of commentary. I really like knowing what is going on...
