Hi Richard!
burn me, damn me! thank you. it is now working and i will sit back and read some more of the conf-options.
It catches lots of people out. Helpful sometimes, but mostly I spend time puzzling just like you did.
you just gave me a huge argument for the db and so i will probably win my fight against a stubborn professor, that wants to stick to his big fat o....e 'cause it is the most conforming db.
What, with their use of nulls?
