I suppose there is the vertical factor of the cube cube footage to consider though. You are, of course, correct.

13 years in a cube - that is worse than 12 years a slave.

If you told me I was going to have to spend the next 13 years in a cube I would say "kill me now".

No, No, two reasons we didn't have that client & bats have some sense(!) still battling with that swine, looks like I have it on the ropes though. Over an f******** week it would have been quicker & cheaper for me to re-write it totally in C#! & not use comment style they did, what would have been sensible comments in totally the wrong place (and also functions that you would think would be used were used not being used!). Another Goody from this joy the configure function runs all the tests! Hah!! VB compiles this c**p??

Touched a nerve I did? My apologies Glenn. The wound is still fresh...

You did a bit (sorry!) The wound is not only fresh if the email I am typing at the moment doesn't get there it will be open (I stand to flayed on Monday by the boss who is on site (in sunny (ha!) Texas!))

To misquote Edsger Wybe Dijkstra
The use of COBOL VB cripples the mind; its teaching should, therefore, be regarded as a criminal offense.

You really need to read the Daily Insider.

Can I have a link for that ?

You're welcome!

Griff, is everything reversed across the pond? The Maunder Bar (Cool name BTW) is on the left in my browser.

Would you accept the excuse that he's Australian and I didn't want to confuse him?
No?
That'll be my natural stupidity then...

I had assumed he meant the navigation bar where the "The Insider News" under the menu "community" is indeed on the righthand side (well at least it's more to the right than the left)
|

Aye, that would be the Maunder Menu Bar.

Well if talking about a "bar" everything that comes into mind has a greater horizontal than vertical length So the menu on the left isn't a "bar" in my understanding
|
|
|
|
|
There are times when I go to the "bar" I enter vertical but end up leaving horizontal because of chemically induced vertical vertigo.
