I built a DB for a dude in London England 8 years ago and I sent him prolly 20 "updated" database sample files showing the progress made during the course of the contract period. All of the continual requests were ridiculous, but the straw that broke the camel's back was one whereby he wanted me to make sure a user entered field data in every textbox, IN ORDER, one a time, and wanted me to write code that checked whether or not the user was doing things correctly. The form had 8 bound fields on it and all of those fields required data to be entered. Not only did I end up writing massive amounts of IF-THEN and CASE statements, but he wouldn't accept the standard access dialog that popus up saying "Access cannot save the record at this time. You must fill in all required fields". And of course, that message is plain as day to any user that understands the English language.
