The only reason to quote text is to respond to it and then you would naturally respond after the quote since the other way around makes no sense. If anyone does make a FAQ make sure explain first *what* to quote. And only having said that then say *how* to quote it. -- Gregory Stark EnterpriseDB http://www.enterprisedb.com Ask me about EnterpriseDB's Slony Replication support! ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 2: Don't 'kill -9' the postmaster
