I was about to post the same thing about an XNA forum - good job i checked here first or people may have been throwing 1's at me Dan

The plan is to get some work. One of the clients i deal with has put me onto a good possible earner so hopefully it wont be too bad

Not another job but going back to college so i am going. He has already offered me more to stay but i am pretty set on going. I want things to be a success and leave with everything being positive. J

Is that for the links back to the site? I know page ranking is calculated on the number, relevence and page ranking of the linking site but there seems to be some question as to how this effects the position on the search (a page with a ranking of 4 may place above one with a ranking of 5). Obviously in some very competetive industries the chances of getting many links from other relevent sites (that are not also competitors who wouldnt link anyway) must be pretty slim. So i was just wondering if it would be possible to get a page 1 on google or Yahoo using just a well formatted site. Jon

Thats it. Thanks. I knew there had to be a better way. The hardest thing about .net is learning the framework itself, The languages are pretty simple. The framework is just so big. Jon

I can tell that your teachers weren't very good, but I've met some pretty good teachers that saw teaching as a way to express their own ideas about a subject they truly felt for. My teacher in analysis/design for example was also an amateur actor, besides actually working as a freelance consultant in his field, and he made a wonderfull mixup of his talents in all those fields, that has prepared me for the job I have now. Another good teacher I had, was my teacher in networks. He was still working daytime as chief developer in one of our big tech companies, but he found that teaching enriched his life, and it felt like he really enjoyed pouring from his knowledge.

Guess what, It works. If you needed to do this to get it to work again, you need to rebuild the class quicker than your think. Is what you did to get it to work again a supportable solution? I don't think so. I think you're living on borrowed time now. I'd be rewriting this thing first thing in the morning so any future changes to the code don't break it again.

Absolutely, and that's what I think every time I see a rant about it. Some people are just better negotiators or more timely than others and that's the way it is. It behooves us all to determine and keep on top of exactly what we are worth at all times so we always know where we stand and can prove it if necessary during a review or other needful time. I.E. keep up on what the industry is paying.

It is not just that the data is missing it is that it has been removed. It was in the tables (even if it was only for about 10 seconds) but must have dissapeared quite soon after that. Would the hardware problems cause that? Yes,MSDE or SQL server would be better (especially given that some ofour new customers are quite large organisations) and i keep pushing that we look at migrating the code, but in this case it would be a big job. The app uses a mix of DAO and ADO and a lot of dynamic SQL, the boss just keeps saying 'maybe we'll look at it in the future', ie never. Jon
