        Warnings or errors?  By a warning, I mean emit error message and   
   continue.  By an error, I mean emit error and stop.

        Groan!  That will be three Perl downloads and installations.  I   
   suppose I need the practice.

        And this?  Where is "NAMELESS\sql" coming from?

        No, c:\cbs2dev\SQLServer is the directory name.  I have not   
   gotten into organising my SQL Server code into different directories   
   yet.  I do not have very much.   
      
        I do not find Microsoft's documentation difficult to get through.   
   I find it difficult to find anything in it above the tactical level.   
   (The syntax of a command is tactical.  Why one might use it or the   
   approach that one uses it in is strategic and often of much greater   
   concern for me.)
