See you there...

Congrats Colin! Well deserved and to those that helped you get there, I have a quote from Kevin Spacey: “If you have done well in whatever business you are in, it's your duty to send the elevator back down and try to help bring up the next generation of undiscovered talent.”

I have a quote from Kevin Spacey:

I don't think I'd get in an elevator with Kevin Spacey!

Well done Colin! It's a testament to your tenacity in exploring, and ferreting out the workings of MS Access. I appreciate everything you have done...

Congratulations Colin, and no doubt well deserved.

Thank you all for the kind words.
Many thanks to Crystal for encouraging me to apply following a recommendation from Jack Leach
Also thanks for the support from AWF members.

I'll keep well clear of that elevator as well If I'm going up, the stairs will do fine!

 

[NauticalGent]

I don't think I'd get in an elevator with Kevin Spacey!

Oh yes you would, if anything out of sheer, morbid curiosity!
