Default VBA - GET / SET ??

I wasn't referring to a post. I asked what Tony did and then guessed he
accepted proof I was an MVP. Here's your statement:

"Since you are never in the private groups, I have no way to communicate with
you outside the public groups. I think it was Tony, but I can't remember for
sure. But you also launched a rather ugly attack on another MVP for no
apparent reason."

You didn't make it clear what you were talking about that Tony did when I
asked you for links to my posts where you thought I was out of line. If it
helps, your paragraph above was in response to my previous post:

In the interest of fixing things that are wrong, please list links to my
posts outside this thread where you think I was out of line. If you think
somebody is out of line, I think it's important to say something instead
of
being quiet.


This is probably one of those times where you were writing, got a phone call,
came back and wrote some more and posted, not realizing part of what you
wrote was an incomplete thought. Happens to me more than I'd care to admit.

If you follow this link and scroll down (or go to the next page if we keep
adding more posts to this thread), can you see the blue MVP icon next to my
name now?

Or if you follow this link and stretch or shrink the center column, can you
see the blue MVP icon next to my name in either the center colum or the right
column now?

Chris, I'm confused.

Are you suggesting I reply outside the forum? If so, I'm not clueing in
on how to do so.

Or are you merely suggesting starting a new thread?

thinking out loud

Hello, I'm not sure that subject line is exactly right for this but in my
head it sounded close.
I have a form with 4 columns of data (ID, Lbound, Ubound, and Description).
There are 11 rows of data that a user can modify, and because Lbound in every
row needs to be the same as Ubound of the previous row I would like to GET
the value of Ubound for each row and SET the value of Lbound. So the user
only needs to enter or modify the value for Ubound and the description. Is
GET and SET the right functions to use or am I getting VBA mixed up with VB?
And can someone start me in the right direction to accomplish this? Thanks
for your help in advance. I truly appreciate all your help and still hope to
be able to help others one of these days.

What you wrote was unprofessional and defamatory, aka a personal attack, aka
an inflamatory remark, aka a flame.

If you don't believe me, do this experiment. Take a fellow employee to see
your boss during a company wide function. While the employee is standing
there and in front of all the rest of the company employees and bosses, tell
your boss your fellow employee occasionally goes a bit off tilt now and then.
Say it loud enough for everybody to hear.

See if your boss doesn't come down on you. Hard.

You've now admitted you haven't got any evidence for your accusation I
"launched a rather ugly attack on another MVP for no apparent reason" nor any
evidence where I was out of line outside of this thread. As I said before,
you've mistaken me for somebody else.

I'm fine with that.

Please don't start a new thread. Keep the info all together here in this
thread for archive purposes. Please post links to my posts where you think I
was out of line, other than in this thread. I think you've mistaken me for
somebody else and gave me credit for their posts.

Seems to me this started with your taking offense where nobody
else perceived a slight.


I've stayed out of this discussion thus far, but I'd like to add a
somewhat different perspective.

I've in the past criticized Chris for not using his real name. I
understand his situation, but think that it's the kind of situation
I'd want to get myself out of, and thus don't think it reflects well
upon him. I also suspected him of being an imposter, but he's
demonstrated to other MVPs that he's not.

All that said, I perceived the wannabee's posts exactly the same way
Chris did -- as posted with an intent to deceive. We've had too many
encounters with people like Don Mellon and Aaron Kempf to be
comfortable with those who stick MVP in their username for no good
reason.

Chris is a good contributor to these forums. He has something of a
temper, but who am I to criticize *that*? Good lord, I'm worse than
Chris in that respect! And we *all* get bent of shape every now and
again over things that, with a bit of perspective, look like not so
big a deal after all.

I think everyone should chill out here for a while. Chris has
recognized that the poster he orginally criticized is actually
sincere and not aiming to deceive, so I just don't see what benefit
there is in drawing out the rest of this discussion.

But perhaps others *do* see benefit, so I will probably killfile the
thread so I won't be bothered by it in the future.

Perhaps others might do the same.

Then you should really retract the accusation that you're unwilling
to back up.

yes, incoherent. It was actually two comments that got wrapped together.
What I was trying to say was:
1. I would prefer to have private discussions in the private group, but
since you are seldom if ever there, I don't know if that will work.

2. As I said previously, I am not sure it was even Tony, but you did post an
attack on another MVP in the public groups. I posted the reference in a
previous post.

I promise, in the future, to eschew obfuscation.
