Post #199,076 by Steven A S 3/16/05 5:07:02 PM Reply	Yes, but... First off I don't like cold. I'm moving to TX for the warm, even hot weather, the warm water diving, and the lack of snow packed and icy roads. I do have 5 years of Oracle experience, but that was in Oracle 6/7. This is why I'm looking at entry level positions for now. I'll need to get caught up on Oracle 10. Overall though, I have 18 years of Database management experience on everything from MS Access (yeah, I know, not a real database, but I have plenty of experience designing complex database programs using VBA), through proprietary AF databases (Maintenance Management Information Control System (MMICS) and Core Automated Maintenance System (CAMS)), Unisys (primarily FOCUS report writer) to Oracle (with experience writing Pro C based programs and converting from Pro Fortran programs) ~~~)-Steven---- "I want you to remember that no bastard ever won a war by dying for his country.
