RE: Client Access Vs Rumba 5.2

[Ken Slaugh <ken.slaugh@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Take another good look at this ActiveX and DLL type stuff. It reduces
the debugging time in the long run. You are correct about being
concerned about the components themselves, but once you've tested them
in your environment then you can assume they are stable. Once you reach
such a level of nerdvana, you just use them over and over and over
again.

Dejamoo is the feeling that you've heard this bull before.
