Richard, Thanks, I will. As I've discussed with you before, I have a tendency to look, maybe, a little too deeply into some things. I guess, that's part of my nature. I was never a person, in school, to accept shortcuts, just on face value. I'll see you next week.

Clarence is a friend of mine, and I have some additional background on his needs from his comments at our last local user group meeting. While studying the DG code may be useful, for the moment I believe all Clarence needs is more basic info to get started using it. I did a quick search on Google for "livecode data grid lessons", and found this as the first hit: <http://lessons.livecode.com/m/datagrid> @Clarence: take a gander through those, and see how well the background info provided there orients you to using the DG, and how well the step-by-step instructions are easy to follow. Let's review your experience in our meeting next Thursday. Bring your experiments to the meeting and we can help fill in any gaps in your learning that may be needed, but the set of tutorials there is so broad that you may not need any additional help at all. -- Richard Gaskin Fourth World Systems Software Design and Development for the Desktop, Mobile, and the Web ____________________________________________________________________ ambassa...@fourthworld.com http://www.FourthWorld.com _______________________________________________ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode _______________________________________________ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
