    Perfect. Get in, work 3 to 6 months (or however long it takes for them to realize it isn’t going to work) then get out with enough cash to live the rest of the year. :laugh:

      With that sort of attitude, is it any wonder everybody complains about the state of MS's software?

        Oh, no, not just MS software. All software. :rolleyes: Most of the time you go into a place needing help, the first thing you have to do is track through all the spaghetti. :laugh:

          Maybe they couldn't bring themselves to write that no qualifications are needed, other than choosing between a range of available icons, and whether to put MENU ITEMS IN CAPITALS OR NOT.

            Probably for all the work arounds needed for performance and even functional reasons because what is claimed and what happens is quite a bit different.

              Well, as a developer, if you can do that, you're probably worth keeping.

                Theory and practice are in theory the same... :rolleyes: :-D

                M.D.V. ;) If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about? Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

                    Spent the last 20 years of my life supporting code. Some I wrote, some not. It pays. :) But it's not fun sometimes. The worse part is when I am trying to figure out what some induhvidual did, realize what he did, slap my forehead, and have to bite my tongue, because they might work 20 feet from me. Had a bug to figure out. Traced it to a race condition. Induhvidual used code that was not thread safe. At the top of the .h and .cpp lots of warnings about not being thread safe. Did it anyway, and it wasn't the first time it happened. But, I'm a contractor, he's an employee, soooooo not going to win that battle.

                      By "worth keeping", I meant to say it probably means you have the skills the company needs to make it worth having you around on a permanent basis. I said nothing about it being worth to you to do it, if it's gonna cost you your sanity. :-)
