[thechat] Microsoft Access 97 Query

Hi William,
What if Google fails to provide me the required information? Google can
not be a substitute of a Human.
As I remember, I asked questions about the theme songs of "Denver The
Last Dinosaur" and "Air Wolf". Believe me, I spent hours on Google for
searching information. There were some information but they did not
contain answers to my real questions. As I went onwards in result pages
of Google, more and more irrelevant information came across.
After a lot of desperation from Google and other search engines, I
brought my questions to TheChat.
The lists at Evolt has taught me to use search engines in a better way
than ever, therefore, my first option has always been a search engine.
Thank you,
Syed Zeeshan Haider.

I think what's being asked is perhaps more of an interest in use of
search
engines, instead of constantly querying thechat with a myriad of
unrelated
queries, including ones which really belong on thelist - I know that for
a
few queries you've asked of thechat, a simple google query has turned up
a
lot of relevant results.

If you're asking questions or looking for any kind of help with the
intent
of sparking off relevant and/or interesting discussion, which some of
your
queries have, then that's one thing -- but using this group as a
substitute
for google, or any other search engine, comes off as a little bit rude
to
me.
