      ouch...painful memories from a boyhood over 30 years ago. 'Op volle toeren' (FULL speed ahead) is so 70's DUTCH tv. Don't you ever remind me of it again. :doh: :doh: :doh:

            The Grain is Big Data. You, the developer, are the Hen -- you must consume the Grain. The Fox is Corporate Security who won't let you in the same room as the Grain and won't let you have the tools to consume it even if they did.

              Or... it could be the gates of hell opening up to usher in new development work on technology that hasn't been supported for 15 years.

              "When you are dead, you won't even know that you are dead. It's a pain only felt by others; same thing when you are stupid." Ignorant - An individual without knowledge, but is willing to learn. Stupid - An individual without knowledge and is incapable of learning. Idiot - An individual without knowledge and allows social media to do the thinking for them.

                So you did have a second job.

                    Did you forget to include a proper termination condition for the link recursion?

                        Make bread from the grain. Grill up the Chicken for sandwiches. Catch the fox and make a fur stole.
