So are you posting this using Chrome?

I posted the original message in Chrome.

This one is posted in Metro IE.

My philosophy is my favourite web browser is whichever one is there or opens first.

Windows recovery was the best thing they ever added.

Unfortunately, it doesn't go back as far as DOS.

On vs For

My boss just emailed me about a report I wrote a few weeks ago that has a problem.
It's a report on open logs in our Support system.
His words exactly, "It must be number of logs opened on that day, currently selections is of logs OPENED for that day"

What would the difference between ON and FOR be ?

If I am a dev I can open a support ticket on Monday, even though it was submitted on Friday of the previous week. That is a ticket FOR Friday that I opened ON Monday.

Perhaps it's that type of subtle difference ?

Okay that makes sense, but our system only save the date on which it was opened(sysdate).

In that case there is never any confusion, it's always ON
But it's more like: the kid is on the table, do something
the TV is on, sshhhhhh
why is the PC always on ... Laugh | :laugh:

If you use FOR that day, you will being that only that day, if you're saying ON that day you're saying it will available on that day and maybe sometime later you can get it again.

That actually taught me a little bit better grammar, thanx Thumbs Up | :thumbsup:

But I still don't see how there could be any difference between the two in this case of the open log dates
