So I'm working on

So I'm working on this massive intranet project for a big bank, which has financial centers all throughout the nation. We have this spreadsheet of financial information for each of the financial centers that we are trying to import into the database. Some of the rows of the spreadsheet are lined out, like for a former financial center that is no longer valid for whatever reason.

So our database guy was going through the 750 or so rows, spot-checking them to make sure that everything got imported into the database correctly. He sent me this email:

I was just about to lose my patience with my kids not letting me concentrate on the importing FC_AVG_Bals.xls into the database when I ran across a row that was struckout.

I think I will go sing bedtime songs and hug them. Posted by Curt at September 24, 2002 02:03 AM
