[QUOTE="Anthony Vaughan, post: 1286861, member: 153283"] I am not altogether convinced that everyone feels that way. As I said, getting information was like pulling teeth. It really seemed to me that it was bordering on being obstructive. I can take a hint. It wasn't really about getting changes approved. It was about someone being able to make a decision. I'm not trying to change any functionality - I'm only interested in making what functionality we have work more effectively and efficiently - and, truth be told, making the database design at least come near to obeying the rules. In reality, I expect non-technical users will be completely unaware that anything has been done at all and that will be proof of how well I've done my job. I fully understand that people can become risk averse, which is why I don't think is going to work. I've a lot more I want to do to make MP work faster and better. I think I am better off doing that, and enjoying the results, with the freedom to get on with it. If others want to try that out in the future then I am happy to share. If you want I will keep in touch. [/QUOTE]
