MaryAnn,

I, of course, do not have a problem with you asking a question, absolutely not.

It was just your inference that we have you read it in the "National Enquirer", if I'm quoting your email correctly, seemed pretty harsh.

You didn't respond to one person, you responded to the entire list.

Given the answers that appeared in this list, it seems that no one besides me read your full response to Jared's suggestion.

You state that

>And one more thing... If I asked the question, thats just it,
>I asked a question. If anyone knows the answer, please offer it here,
>but dont tell me to go read it up in the national enquirer or
>I-dont-know-where-you-mean...

We all read the Web and the Oracle docs in addition to the great answers we receive on this list. If I were to take offense at someone telling me to read, then I wouldn't be able to perform my job, on most occasions.

You appeared annoyed that you were asked to read up on certain topics.

I thought you worked with Oracle stuff. You state below that you do not. If you do not, then I apologize.

And of course, you can pose any question you want to, on this list.

No flames, I promise.

Peace,
Melanie

For Melanie Caffrey,

Wowwwwww... Was your interference RUDE or what?

> > Several people have offered you very clear and very good
suggestions.

First of all, mel, I didnt reply to "several people", I replied to one. Was that one you?

> > And really, you SHOULD be reading the Oracle manuals.

Second of all, mel, I dont really need a lecture, thank you very much! Third of all missy, what I was told was to read up on this and that. I had not been told to read "the manual", or even which one.

> > Otherwise, why did you take a job working with Oracle technology?

Fourth of all, mel, noone ever told you I took a job working with Oracle Technology.

Fifth of all, I didnt know that having a job working with Oracle technology is a requirement for me to be in this list and ask a question.
Is it?

Please, very please, pretty please, flames belong back to the 90s, I never meant any, so please dont give me any yourself.

I just dont get that mentality, I just asked a question, a simple little lowly question, if you dont have an answer, please dont reply at all, I will not hold it against you, or against anyone, I couldnt possibly.
But please dont make me feel bad for asking it telling me to go read on (vaguely like that), just let it go...

many-many thanks,
maa

And anything of personal nature, you can email me personally, you know, there is no reason to involve the whole list...
