   'While you might get an answer here, you might be better served...'   
      
   If you had run into as many threads as I have with 20 answers for   
   Paradox when the question was for Delphi based on Paradox tables, and   
   no one realized it, you MIGHT just do the person, and those answering,   
   the favor of distinguishing between Paradox and Paradox tables as   
   well.   
      
   I'm not 'jumping on' them.  Merely trying to help distinguish whether   
   they are wasting their time here when they could be asking their   
   question of experts in the language they are asking about.   
      
   I don't stay silent any longer because it doesn't help them.
