No problems, Frank. I'm back from a vacation in Boston. I'll be posting again this week. Thanks for missing me.

This looked like a good thread. I'm with you on the Books Online thing. That's exactly how I learned SQL and felt it was more thorough than taking a training class 'cause I had to learn myself. Fortunately, my boss let me print out all the materials and take some TIME to look at it and study.

All the best,

Dale
