lease do not multipost John. This is definitely a database-related question
:so .asp.db was the perfect group in which to post it. Posting it here as
:well did not increase your chances of getting an answer (most of us
:subscribe to both groups). On the contrary, if somebody had taken his time
:to answer it here, only to find that it was already resolved in the other
:group, that person may have been annoyed enough to ignore any future posts
:from you, thereby decreasing your chances of getting help in the future.

:There are times when you will not be sure which group is most appropriate,
:and you will want to post a question to both groups. In that situation, you
:should use the cross-posting technique, rather than posting the same message
:multiple times. To crosspost, put a semicolon-delimited* list of the
:newsgroups to which you wish to post in the To: header of your post and post
:it once. It, and any replies to it, will appear in all the newsgroups in
:your list. So, if I reply in .asp.db, my reply will also appear here in
:.asp.general.
