That being said, I fail to see the steep learning curve for the product. We have a number of non-techies here that are capable of designing and developing reports, forms, and simple bug fixes, all without coming from a programming background. I can't say that about .NET, Java, Perl, etc. There really needs to be some higher-end information like you mention though - AJAX, .NET integration, web forms, etc. I haven't found much in the way of PFC resources that I'm happy with either. Maybe some of us need to put our heads together and come up with a viable solution to this? I don’t disagree that there is a shortage of entry-level material for Powerbuilder.

Darleen is a liar and a thief. i am positive that the photos that she took were not from our apartment. also, when some of the photos showed no damage or mess, she said that the camera didn't pick up everything. But you're sure that the photos didn't add anything to the photos? Our apartment was also broken into; they had a deadbolt key. Darleen disputes this, but Tinley Park police said that the complex has been hit alot in the past 2 years in a similar way. Funny how this doesn't come up in the newsletter. Again, avoid this complex at all costs. we had moved out march 31st, spent all weekend moving and cleaning. every room was vacuumed, every wall washed, every floor scrubbed, windows spotless. then i got the statement in the mail, and they’re keeping over $700. now its been over 2 months, and i have still not received my check. also, she claimed that she had no forwarding information thats why it was not sent, yet 2 copies of the statement were mailed to me.
