Rite on Mike!
I just cant bring myself to work on a DB server that doesent play the William Tell Overture. It inspires the workers to more productivity. Since MS is on an inovation roll and you have such close contact with them, do you know if they are going to have a splash screen popup when you request data With Clipy looking looking for your information? With the blazing speed of MS products the resources used for this wouldent be noticable im sure and it would just be so user friendly. Of course if clipy could have Balmers voice it would be just perfect. Just the thought of this makes me feel all warm and...............be back later! i think i need a shower.
