Now I understand. Microsoft has cultivated a
'here's the answer your looking for now without
a lot of techno-club hetro-bashing-type huff, and oh, by the way, you
may want to do it this way as it makes it easier
for others to follow (hey, thanks for the tip!)'
culture (scarcasm aside, I do realize the MS crowd out there has been
spoiled compared to the UNIX-IBM-Oracle crowd)
and whenever we peer over the fence from ms land you deal with the
outcome of this spoiling of people who are used to being able to find
the answer
they seek quickly (well, usually) without reading 10 books.
It's not easy being you.
Again, thank you for answering my question. I do appreciate it.
