-------------

I am sure we all will miss his character among the groups.

He was still fairly recent active in StackOverflow, and here.

David was just about always looking to correct any post I made, but that was
his passion getting the best of him and he simply wanted to people to be
correct.

David contributed much to our Access community and I very much respected his
work here.

I think I interacted and posted in groups with David over a span of more
than 10 years. That alone is rather amazing.

In fact in the latter years David and I actually got along quite well and
built up a healthy dose of respect for each other.

To quote Larry Linson when I asked Larry years ago about this David fellow?

* * * * * * * * *"He is almost always right"

David was a well-known figure in the Access community and landscape.

As others noted, David contributed a great deal and was an established
expert on replication.

In a way, David kept us all on our toes and make sure we were not loosely
goosey with the facts.

At the end of the day I will certainly miss his postings and bantering among
the many groups he participated over the years.

We will miss his participation in this group.

My regards to his family and friends.

Very sorry to hear that. I'm glad that you kept us up to date and let

Thanks for posting.

IMNHSO this is not at all off topic.
