robinblokeSometimes I hate my job;
I've just spent the last 4 hours trawling through some of the worse documentation (microsoft is ~heaven~ compared to this) using an abysmal inline editor that doesn't even give line numbers, remember your code or allow basic editing facilities (they even tell you to use another editor) in order to... (drum roll here) search for a single occurance of a text string in a field of a module. Now in any RDMS this would be a piece of cake, I've written gawd knows how much script based pieces of code for several other DB systems and I thought those were bad, this is hell.
What makes it worse is we're using a requirements capture tool to try and implement effectively a database system solution, it's madness, this added to the fact that the inline (so called) help is virtually useless - when it's correct - and my boss is adament we use this pile o' pooh to do the solution, 'cos we're already forked out around 20k for this stupid software.
Anyone got any vacancies for a software engineer?
