Thank you for the good answer.

I have talked a bit round about the matters in hand. It is not considered as good practice to tell people about relations inside or "outside" company. The problem at hand still was how I in first message described it.

But I have not corrected when I should have, and I actually never should have used term Oracle people (just that it sounded easy). It gives you the wrong idea of where the info is stuck. They can't give what is not their's to give.
This what I gain from the info I was looking for, is used to build that bridge. We had no communication, and now trough proper channels we have. Because we have data to support our "feeling" that something is wrong. There will be no actions what so ever with "I just feel that.."

I believe if body language could transfer trough tcp none would have been upset. First mistake was mine. About the having something for free and forums. Of course you expect that the info from the forum is free. But also no one forces you to come here and answer for n00bies and lamers like me. Or am I wrong.

In the end I am where I should be with this matter. I have learned a bit more about keeping my temper out of the game room. And I hope I didn't make any arch enemies here. Received on Wed Sep 26 2007 - 13:29:03 CDT
