It can seem like Sybrand and DA Morgan can be a little short but the answers they give are good and just because they don't pretty them up doesnt mean they arn't valuable. One way or another Sybrand has been able to point me in the right direction on and off for years be it in my thread or anothers ..... you just have to live with it dude, especially if you are doing the asking and not able to contribute much.

Working with Reports 2.5 on Oracle 9i is not 'ideal' --- I expect to get a little heat for it.
