      From: RDAPres@NoRDASpamWorldWide.com              Having a structure where you often have to change it by adding fields       usually indicates a normalization problem. It certainly is, at very       least unusual and abnormal. In adddition, your response to Liz about       needing to keep fields in a specific order further suggests you       misunderstand table structure, schema and normalization. PERHAPS there       is a good reason. I can't imagine one. Check out my Database Basics and       Normalization papers at our paradox resources pages (link in my       signature) for more info on this.              Denn Santoro       President       Resource Development Associates       http://www.RDAWorldWide.Com       Offices in the United States and Germany       Providing solutions to health care, business, governments and       non-profits since 1982              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
