From: Steve on 13 May 2010 16:38 There is nowhere in the Code of Conduct for these newsgroups that prohibits offering help with an Access application for a reasonable fee.

From: Steve on 13 May 2010 20:16 That's very nice of you, John, but why don't you make similar offers to many other OPs you respond to? Further, you condone the actions of visio john and arno r but they never make an offer like yours to any OP. In fact their conduct obviously violates the Rules Of Conduct of the newsgroups and you condone their actions. OPs need to be very wary of hypocrites in sheep's clothing. Steve "John W.
