>>>uh, this might be a stupid question, but has anyone here written object code before. it ain't like putting together the family home page. I have but I couldn't do it. I would program first and read the manual later. That one of my biggest problems...I can see the end result, I just can't stand the frustration of learning how to do something new. That's how I founded my software company...I had an Idea, and found somebody who could do it. WHO-WA-LA....he's making more screwing around with my ideas about 20 days a year then he does working in 9 months, he's a Professor of Computer Science. He's Happy, I'm Happy. My Job Description in that business is; think of sh-t, no stress at all.

>> if finding a squadron of talented object coders is part of the success story . . . . . . INTF has what you need . . . and the pool gets better every day . . . hope you stay around but just like the last few days, if them there disbelievers are going to throw me cheap stock . . . I'll stand there with the basket open. Remember David, I said the product was scalable . . . that is what I meant . . . it is all in place . . . you ought to try for the annual meeting . . . you might just double up instead. Out to dinner . . . snow or no snow in NYC . . . then . . . who knows.

uh, this might be a stupid question, but has anyone here written object code before. Yeah, for about the last 12 years or so. First project out of school was an oo designed system written from scratch with C++. I was lucky to be in the right place at the right time. If their system is object-oriented, fine, that can help but what really matters: - does it work (duh) and are the customers happy with it - is the system designed well so that supposed "minor" changes don't wreak havoc on other parts - is the system scalable and extensible - and a host of other things that I'm sure you already know I don't care if something is written in C++ or Java, or whatever. A friend of mine, a C guru, has been an OO programmer long before OO was talked about, yet I've interviewed people who professed to know OO and C++ just because they ran freakin' AppWizard in Visual C++. -tk
