RE: [sqr-users] Dealing with phone numbers in sqr

Varsha,

You're far too rough on poor David.  He's not racist.  He just views the
rest of us as truly loathesome creatures, not real programmers like he is.
When he's not programming, his favorite pasttime is sneering.

Pardon me while I duck.

David,

This is an SQR users group, and not a slam-people group. This is where you
go to get help on writing SQR code. If you have a problem with that perhaps
this is not the group for you? I'm sure you are a crack SQR programmer, and
don't need anothing except a SQR manual to look at, but not all of us are,
and this forum is a place to get help from other folks who may have a quick
answer to a question. 

Why the slam on IIT? I'm not a graduate from IIT (nor do I know the person
who asked the question in the first place) but your comment sounded racist
to me.

Regards,

Varsha.

Ashish,

I have done this type of programming many times.

The catch is that you have to KNOW the language well enough to code!

I guess they don't tech real coding at IIT...?  Only resume writing...?

SQR is a programming language!  Learn it and you will have no problems.

     [ Hint: Delimiters, Concatenation ]

Regards,

David
