    Keep 'em coming.

    10,000 - and never a cross word?, go on treat yourself to a few you've earned it!

    Usually with a post count like that you could argue that its quantity not quality - well i'm not one to argue

    Well done my old mate for sticking with it....lol
    Regards,

    Zack, that post was very well written, and I couldn't agree more.

    Bob, I'm proud to be able to call you a friend, and am glad that you came here to share your experiences, views and expertise with all of us.

    Wow Zack, when you create a dignity, you create a dignity. I hadn't considered you might add him to the peerage. It's like our own little VBAX realm now

    For my part Bob I wish to issue a heartfelt thanks. I always read your responses and am better for it. Thanks for giving your time here, it is much appreciated. I too am in awe of your expertise and inspired by your generous nature.

    What a relief! I thought Bob was sponsoring a race. Running is not my cup of tea.

    All kidding aside, your skills and contributions here are epic. The amount of code that you have helped write is simply staggering. The members at VBAX are certainly lucky to have someone as willing as you to assist us.

    I've learned quite a lot from your posts and have the utmost respect for your contributions Bob (even if you continue to insist that I spell color wrong!)

    Your slavish admirer,
    Brandtrock

    Thanks for all of the kind words guys. It is really an honour to be the first to 10,000, but it is also great that VBAX now has a a 10K poster, just up to you guys to get there as well and big up the site's kudos.

    Oh, and Malcolm ... thanks for the feedback.

    Very true. A considerable amount of what I know comes from you, Bob, and when I help others, often the only thing I do is distributing your knowledge. (Without permission )
    I'm sure many others feel the same way.

    You have a teacher's insctinct, feeding disciples just enough knowledge to help them get over some difficulty or other. This way you keep us inspired, and interested in doing our part of the solution. Also, this way you keep us feeling entitled to half of the credits

    For me, it doesn't feel right to congratulate for the 10K+ postcount, because it's just a side-effect. The essence is that you are a helpful man with a generous nature, who can always be counted on. My deepest respect and thanks for all you have done here. And my wish for you is that you can do the same in the outer world.
