New Access World Forums VIP Group

[boblarson]

Hello All!

I would like to announce the formation of a new group here on Access World Forums. This group is the Access World Forums VIP. What is an AWF VIP you may ask. This is a new distinction for a number of people here who have proven themselves to be very helpful to the Access community here as well as knowledgeable in several areas regarding Access and some of the other programs that we have forums for here on AWF.

The formation of this group has taken a lot of time and thought. I have participated over at Utter Access where they have VIP's and that is what this is modeled after. It is meant as a way to recognize those who are instrumental in helping others on the forum. Not everyone can be awarded the Microsoft MVP award, but there are plenty of people here who deserve some sort of recognitions. So, it is with great pleasure that I announce the formation of this group. And, it is with great pleasure I announce those who have been initially chosen to participate as AWF VIP's. They will have access to a private forum here (AWF VIP) as well.

Excellent choice in candidates and a wonderful way to say "thank you" for all their hard work and effort.

[GaryPanic]

Do we need a secret handshake?

Do we need a secret handshake?

LOL. I don't think so. AWF VIP is a bit of a giveaway

 

[divinci]

well.... i think that I that i can bring some new, fresh, trying to persuade the kids to adapt a more, intellectual - non access view of the world....... just go straight to ADO.... type access front end's.... keep us aging old geeks able to throw the fog over the salesmen x

As a FYI- it's not a thing that you can apply for- it's on a invitation basis, and generally you would have to prove your mettle around here until the group notices your efforts and contributions.

That said, do feel free to help away or share your tips for designing a application or whatever.

 

[FuzMic]

Great guys, great effort, great help ... Keeps the group spirit going...

At first I was very disappointed that I was not on the VIP list, but then I realized that I have contributed very little to this forum, especially in relation to the people you've put on the real list.

Congrats to those of you who have put so much effort into this support network.

As for myself- I am a very minor player in the Access world - and I have gotten a great deal of help here. I have gotten most of my help from searching the DB for solutions that are already there - and it's been wonderful.

I have been working on a single database for many years, refining and improving it, and all of you, and lots of others have posted lots and lots of help.

Thanks to all for being here. From the loftiest experts, to the lowliest boneheads. Sometimes it's the most simple questions that give the most basic and helpful solutions.

At first I was very dissapointed I never seemed to win the national lottery.

Then I realized my chances might improve if I bought a ticket.

 

[Datagopher]

Congratulation to the new VIPs.

 

[Tanya]

Regards
Tanya

I don't want to belong to any club that will accept people like me as a member.

Dear all VIPs,

I may have seen this thread quite late, but I'd like to congratulate all who have achieved such an esteemed position.

I for one, am very grateful to some on the list and who have helped me in the past. Just hope they will be there for us newbies in the future.

Regards and Congrats once again to all.

 

[Coldsteel]
