I will grant you that the words in Rules of Conduct for this group, as
posted at
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/ga...RulesofConduct
can be interpretted, should you choose to, as letting you advertise: "We ask
that you refrain from posting advertisements or solicitations that do not
pertain directly to the intended use and purpose of the newsgroup or chat."

However, as you're well aware, the vast majority of people here interpret
"the intended use ... of the newsgroup" to mean that this is a free help
service.

I'm sorry that your business is so poor that you feel it necessary to
emulate ambulance-chasing lawyers, using tactics that draw the scorn and
comtempt of your peers.

Doug,

I have always respected your approach and continue to feel that way. My
intent here is not meant to put you down in any way. I just am asking you
on a professional level where specifically does it say that offers of help
on an Access related problem for a fee are prohibited?

Steve

These newsgroups are not intended for you to solicit commercial business.

You know that: you've been told MANY times by MANY different people, yet
you still persist.

Are you really that egocentric that you figure you can ignore everyone?

Why don't you explain it to me in concrete terms, Doug.
