One table or two?
Hello Jon
Many thanks for your suggestions and references: I will certainly check them all out, although it's going to have to wait until next week now, as I have a few other things I need to attend to. I also appreciate your 'warning me off' using anyone seeking to gain business through the newsgroup. That said, I will just mention that on a few occasions in the past I have received similar offers from well-respected newsgroup contributors. This has been at the point where the help required has gone beyond that which could reasonably be expected for free. Many times I have been amazed just how much help I have received - for free, with the effect that the dividing line between free work and chargeable work is uncertain and variable. On one occasion, at the end of a long (and successful) thread with a highly respected contributor, he pointed out that the help given had gone well beyond the normal free level and therefore if I felt like paying for it that was all right with him!! I was very surprised at the time - not because the help hadn't been valuable to me, but because I simply hadn't seen it coming. I seem to recall that the rules of the newsgroup dictate that a contributor should not explicitly offer their chargeable services, and this is obviously what Steve did. No real harm done though, and if I am unable to implement any of the tips/tools at the references you have given (through my lack of expertise!) I am not sure I can see a reason not to pay someone - like Steve - to provide the facility that I need. Then it would obviously be a matter of my specifying exactly what I expected for my money, and how much I'd be paying. With a bit of luck though, I'll be able to work it out for myself - with help from your references! I'll let you know how I get on, next week. Thanks again for all your help. Les "John...
