DLookup returning Null instead of empty string

[pdanes]

If I am at fault (I don't think I am but ...)then mea culpa - sorry.

You're not - I was. I let myself get provoked by foolishness when I should have just ignored it. Sorry to everyone who got exposed to that.

 

[plog]

Yeah, sorry about that. I get irked when someone thinks that a helpful contribution is to ignore my question and tell me I am doing it all wrong. And then continue to harp on it when I tell them I know what I want and am doing it that way on purpose.
...I should have just ignored her completely, and I will try to remember to do that in the future.

Wow, that changed my mind, it's not a split decision. Pat Hartman wins by TKO. It's like you threw in the towel and just decided to land low blows for the rest of the match.

Pat took the high road and dropped out, so I feel I have to speak on her behalf: You just can't leave it alone, even in that "apology" you took several digs at her. And that's not even counting your 400+ word Post #20 manifesto about how horrible she is.

I didn't take sides on the tecnical issue in my initial post because I just wanted the boring bickering to end. But I will now--Pat was right on the technical aspect all along. But somehow you took it personal and got a little snippy in your first reply to her, then even more so with each volley.

So, I apologize to Pat for my initial post. I shouldn't have tried to stop the bickering I should have jumped in, agreed with her and piled on you when you went mean.

Fine, except that she wasn't "right on the technical aspect all along". She was wrong on the technical part. If you agree with her, then you're wrong as well. She accused me of all sorts of crap I didn't say, and in #20, all I did was answer HER insults. Yeah, I overdid it.

Let me step in for a minute. Thread locked. Conversation over. Plenty of other things to talk about.
