I have sufferred valiantly through all of the guff looking for what i thought was a simple answer to a simple question... like how do you draw a diagonal line through your form, and why would you bother???<br /><br />yes yes i hear you crying in your beers... but that is a complex question... and I can see you attempting to drown your sorrows and complain bitterly to the bar staff that your beer appears to have been watered down... then suddenly realising like a twit (and that is an extremely technical term) that it is because of the tears you have shed.<br /><br />It is with a modicum of relief that you then discover the true talent of your bar service is that while they have appeared interested in everything you have just complained about they obviously have not heard a single word of it... much like the help desks at various places you have tried.<br /><br />Given that there are no rocket scientists to decrypt the answer you were given (never a rocket scientist handy when you need one) you refer it to your 10 year old niece who delivers back an even more confusing answer with bits of lolly gobble bliss boms (yes they still make them) stuck to it and a really nice picture of her mummy crashing the car into your new porsche... arent children wonderful??<br /><br />So we have bribed my ten year old niece with more lolly gobble bliss boms to draw the answer in crayon if that is what it takes to solve your problem.. right here...<br /><br />post your question... we will bounce it around and see if we can get a simple answer...<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/12751242-111560349583815328?l=newtodotnet.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Neil Rieckhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11099228355627155435noreply@blogger.com5
