This is another piece of common wisdom that I ignore. I've only one
case where I make sure the user has an MDE, and that's because she
has a tendency to type through the occasional unhandled error
message. Thus, I never hear about the error (she didn't see it), and
I end up being called in to revert the code she typed into to its
compilable state. So, she gets an MDE. All my other users have MDBs,
and it's Just Fine.

I can't recall ever delivering an mde or ade. I believe people should get
what they pay for, and be able to see it, and if they want, screw around
with it, too. I have not included the secrets of nuclear fission nor the
location of my cache of AK 47's in any of my code, and so am quite
unconcerned that anyone may steal my "secrets", all of which I'm willing
to give away anyway.
With that goes a a belief that people should be responsible for what they
do. Screw up the application? Pay me or someone else to repair it.
Since 1992 or whatever I've delivered a lot of Access applications. Has
this style ever bit me? Nope! Now Aim Mail ... oops that's another sad
story outlined in my new sig lines.

Think free Aim Mail is a good deal? 4 gig storage! IMAP too! I have an
account. It has about two thousand messages stored on Aim's server. But I
can't access the account, nor the stored messages nor new messages. Do I
have the username and password right? I'm pretty sure because I can log
into the account with an instant message program like Miranda or Trillian
(AIM too). And they can tell me I have fifteen new e-mails. But for two
weeks I can't login with the webmail interface, nor with IMAP, nor with
POP. So, be careful with Aim mail. Cuz there seems to be no recourse.
And, yes, I know the terms I agreed to specify AOL has no responsibility
whatever. But maybe this will help you remember those terms are for real
and your e-mail may disappear forever.
