Sorry to disappoint, if I am among your targets for this posting. I am truely, honestly, searching for why my book-knowledge and experience are so out of alignment in the area of databases, so I am guilty of bringing experience into the mix. I would like to be sure you are aware that I have nothing to sell and much to learn, so please count me out of those categories. This can come across as "selling" because I am comparing what I have read with what I have seen. I will (and do) try to leave any discussion of existing products out of the mix and will stick to nothing that exists, if that would be preferable. Should I also stick only to questions specifically about RDBMS's?

Cheers anyway. --dawn Received on Tue May 11 2004 - 17:05:37 CDT
