Hi Martin,

Ohhhhhh ... I'm DEFINITELY up for some 'breaking bones noise' this 
morning!!

<rant>
I sent my IT crew some updated data to load into Oracle last week. 
Country info, it kinda looked like: "Chile   CL    1    2".  I sent 
it to them in an Excel spreadsheet.

I screwed up.  It was supposed to look like: "CL   Chile   1   2".
(ISO Country Code in the 1st column instead of the 2nd.) My bad.

It's in frickin Excel! ... I lost a week on the project because these 
boogers couldn't figure out how to transpose two columns in Excel???
</rant>


Ohhhhhhh Yeah ... 'breaking bone noise' ... I'm up for it!


Some cranky Texan
