I agree with Scotty Troll on this one.
- We all know that insulting MS people will make Oracle people all warm and cuddly. Because they are too stupid to recognize insincere puffery.
- We all know that Oracle Forms is bloatware what with all those DLLs you have to install in UNIX environments to make it work.
- We all know what a horrible reputation Oracle Forms has among form builders world-wide. Heck you can hardly get it to run in a UNIX environment.
- Apparently this refers to civility and gray matter so being one of "them" rather than one of "us" should not be surprising.
Finally, you are absolutely correct about Forms being a single vendor product. That is why I like VB. I can but it from MICROSOFT, or Microsoft, or MicroSoft, or even MiCrOsOfT.
[Quoted] I'll be ignoring your postings from here on out Scotty. Beam yourself out because the only trolling that intetest me is down from a slow moving boat.
