Kudos & Milestones: August 2014

Kudos:

gibneyt wanted to bring a specific set of information from an Excel spreadsheet into an Access database, and got a ton of help from aikimark: Wow. Can you see my head spinning? I might be able to incorporate half of that in the next month if I’m lucky… Thanks so much, much more than I expected but then this is Experts Exchange.

sdruss was looking for a script to help parse a table creation script, and wilcoxon went through several iterations to get it to right: Thanks! Got it. It is now working perfectly for me. Again really, really appreciate. wilcoxon gave me outstanding support. Extremely knowledgeable and very patient.

Gary_The_IT_Pro gave a lesson in how to answer questions by helping bretbrikNXT with identifying automated regression test tools for Windows applications: Superb response. Appreciate that kind of feedback. Funny how questions are often the answers. Excellent!! One that goes into the bucket of “here’s why I would pay for a service instead of googling for the answer.”

Ray_Paseur puts a lot of work into articles like his one on PHP sessions being easier than you think and it’s paid off – he has been awarded Editors’ Choice status. But what really keeps him going are comments like this from keith1001: I also want to thank Ray for answering a lot of my questions, teaching me the correct way to do things, and these articles. Ray, more articles, please 🙂

New Geniuses: padas has earned his second Genius certificate, in HTML, while PortletPaul, last year’s Rookie of the Year, has picked up the first of what will probably be many in Microsoft SQL Server. Congratulations to all!
