Walter, this comment and the rest of your [snipped] note is just as
non-helpful  as Mark's.

You guys are too much.  Do you have really that much of nothing to do with
your time.

If it doesn't apply to you, or you don't think it can be done, or you are
not in a position to take on jobs because you work somewhere else... why not
just let it go?  And then to be so disingenuous as to say you want to be
kept informed of the project. Yikes, it's too much to take sometimes. Or,
just on some completely out of left field bug up your butt do you now
actually think that filePro is not capable of presenting web applications??
If so, I have many dozens of sites you could check out that are doing it
quite nicely. Do you never go look at anything Ken Cole has done? Howie?
Alan Mazutti? Me? any one of 50 other filePro-web designers?  sheesh... just
because you are either ill-informed, or just sliding into ever deepening
displeasure with filePro... but please, don't be so insulting as to suggest
that this person must be thinking of fileMakerPro instead of filePro... it's
really distasteful.

I say the same thing to you as I do/did to Mark. If it doesn't interest you,
why say anything at all?  And for the love of God... why say something
negative?  do you have some compelling reason you can give me for doing
this?  I think not.  It just gets SO old with you guys sometimes. Let me
speak for 99% of the readers of this list... give it a rest!

P.S. - If you are going to bash filePro, either do it elsewhere... or try
some specific statements of fact.  If you need an example, as it appears
from your note that you do, look at the message I just put up about filePro
not being able to do the transactional processing of a true RDBMS. I managed
to say this clearly *without* beating up on filePro for that inability.
Try it sometime.
