Hi Ann,


Maybe not since the cordless mouse, because:
- I prefer optical mouses with a wire;
- SQL Server temporary tables preceed them.
=;o)

Well, THEY call them temporary tables. If you rather call them
"dynamic collections", than that is what I want:
- I want those "dynamic collections".
=:o)

I repeat: those things were the ONE feature I miss from SQL Server.

Regards,
Paulo
