      From: michelljb@aol.com              I respect your opinion. Again, I like to give people the benefit of the       doubt so I didn't take it that way. Perhaps he worded his initial post       wrong. In my mind, it would take a really ballsy person to take on a       job they knew they would fail at, but again, I can only speak for me.              Thank you Leslie.              :) Michelle                            Leslie Milburn wrote:       > "Michelle Burnore" wrote:       >> Initially, I had the same reaction as you.....Paradox system - OPal,       >> Forms - Data Models - Reports - Data structures that ALL are dependent on,       >> being converted to a "like" system in Access....big project.
