It's much more hard to believe that Arno R and his dimwitted friends John
Marshall and Keith Wilby are allowed to pollute the newsgroups with their
worthless rubbish. Did you ever stop to think how much bandwidth these
idiots are taking up? They don't make any contribution to the newsgroups and
are still permitted to do this!!

Steve,
Is this really you? Are you really this ignorant that you would abuse a
public news group like this?
I find it hard to believe that you would so blatantly advertise like this.

Actually, we have a tracking database now, but the creator of it dumped
everything into one table. So, it's very inflexible.

Thanks,

I'm fairly sure if you would stop trolling and advertising in the news
groups, these guys won't be using up the bandwidth. They don't reply like
this to anyone else that I am aware of.

It's just you and only you...

You can choose whether you want to believe this or not --
In the past four weeks I have received 31 requests for help from people in
the newsgroups all willing to pay for the help. Most requests have already
been completed and I have been paid for most of them. I am working on the
others and will complete them shortly and have been prepaid on most of them.
There for a while you didn't see me participating in the newsgroups because
I was putting all my time into helping these people. There are various
reasons why these people were willing to pay for the help and in fact some
of them had to with the disgust over Arno R and his dimwitted friends. I
treated everyone with fairness and my fees to all were very reasonable. At
this rate I am much ahead of getting to 2000.

31 more victims. So if I start posting how much money I make by robbing
banks, that makes it ok to rob banks?

So if you do have legions of satisfied customers:
Why are they not jumping to your defence?
Shouldn't these legions of satisified customers be keeping you too busy to
troll in the newsgroups?

More childish rants? I guess you never study cause and effect.

You troll for work : we complain.

Ken,

We'll track the prep and filing of tax returns: when an analyst has reviewed
a return and sent it to our tax vendor for processing; when tax info has been
sent to the trust beneficiary; when the return has been filed. We'll store
all payments made by the trust which include balances due and estimated
payments. And we'll track filing info: date filed, returns on extension
etc. All this would be for federal and state returns.
We'll have various reports.

Thanks again for your suggestions.

P.S. I'm enjoying all the "trolling for work" comments.

Ken,
Thanks. One more thing. Do you have any suggestions about setting up the
relationships between the tables?

If the account number is recycled, then it cannot be the "primary key" of
the table in which it's used as an identifier -- otherwise, data from
different people would be mixed together over time. In this situation,
using
an autonumber field as the primary key (which means that your children
tables would link back via the autonumber field, not the account number
field) would likely be best.

The account number field can be text -- not a problem.

Free is good! That's why they have me, a non-programmer!
The data from the accounting system is basic descriptive data: among
others
we have account number, title, date opened, fiscal year-end and a field
called tax responsibility code. The tax responsibility code tells what
type
of trust: grantor trust, irrevocable trust, estate, charitable (number
of
different types) among others.
So, I guess we would need this descriptive data table, a return types
table,
a payment table and a filing table? The returns type table would be
linked
to
the tax responsibility code in the descriptive data table.
Would this run off auto numbers? I thought the account number was
unique,
but I understand they can be recycled after a number of years. Also,
it's
data type is text, not integer.

Recommendations would depend upon the type and format of the data that
you
download. In general, your database should have tables for each
entity/class
of data (e.g., customers/clients, returns filed, types of returns,
etc.).

If you can post more details about your data, I'm sure we can provide
some
*free" suggestions to you.

Hi Duane,
You asked the same question about two weeks ago I guess.
It still *is* Steve. And he also seems to be proud of it (sic).

-- He *has* abused the groups for a couple of years now.
-- He *is* abusing the groups at the moment.
-- He *will* abuse the groups in the future.

And he even dares to mention issues about the spirit of the newsgroups. Great!

Nothing else we can do??
Can we find a way to stop him?? Arguing does *not* help.
Can we take his computer away (something Michka wanted years ago)??
Idea's?? Anyone??

It's just Steve and only Steve indeed.

For me: I would like to stop this 'hunt' today.
But I am afraid Steve is not willing to give up *his* hunt here.

This 'sucesstory' (if at all true) only proves what we are telling you.
You are *only* (ab)using the newsgroups for your benefit.

I have the same question as John asks you:
Why don't your satisfied clients come to your aid ??
Even if you can find one or two: Abuse is still abuse.

Arno R
