-  That explains a lot - I happened to pop in there yesterday to look 
for a non-computing book but had a browse anyway.  I was amazed that 
I could only find one slim volume from the seventies about using UNIX 
(i.e. not administering it).  I read a bit of it - wasn't too bad.

-  My XML query earlier was about building what is effectively a 
front end to an existing database.  Just to clarify. rather that 
seeking an answer to a specific question I am after general guidance 
on how to educate myself further in this area.

-  I'v actually got one sticker left here.  MB.
