I suggest you get some training in interface design, and marketing wouldn't hurt, either. There's the geek way and then there's the way the rest of the world sees software. The good software is the kind ordinary people can relate to. A grid with >65535 rows is simply not good software design. My software has been in use at Charles Schwab, Wells Fargo Bank, Bank of America, and in human organ transplant centers worldwide. The reason I've had some success with my software is because I write not for geeks but for ordinary users.

But don't you strive for bug-free software, first and foremost? Whether users want to see past 65,535 is surely *their* business, not the business of some net nanny who celebrates a bug as the reason why they shouldn't? MM

Well you'd best tell that to your bussom buddies at Micro$oft because Vista swallows up most of the first GB of RAM just to stay on its feet! Mike |
