Re: “and then I got to retire.”
Retiring is a good way out of messy situations. I think there were a number of Agency and regional directors who opted for retirement when Donald Trump was about to take office!

Scubavol > Databases can be brought forward for anyone sober.


Sure. IF one is willing to keep making microsoft rich every time they upgrade something.

I haven't forgotten having to 'bring forward' the shops Access databases several times - when my employers decided it was time to upgrade Windoze and Orifice . . . Sometimes it upgraded smoothly . . other times we caught holy heck getting everything 'fixed'.

The last 'upgrade'. . I think it was going from Windoze 7 to Win-10. And I think it was called 'Office 360' . . more of an internet version of office than what we had been running.

And they decided to 'upgrade' the computers from desktops to laptops. The desktops were doing OK . . but the laptops had all kinds of problems trying to run our old Access databases.

And then microsnot 'auto-magic' updates sent something particularly vile and evil and our computers starting going down with the 'blue screen of death flu'. Never really did get it adequately resolved . . and then I got to retire.

Zim.
