Age:
Too old, I feel even older when I discover I've finished my coding session at 5 o'clock in the morning (yawn!).

How long you have been programming:
Since 1985 (feeling old now), when my first computer was an Acorn Electron with it's BBC Basic, which was quite a flexible language for it's day, I was lousy at it's built in assembler language though.

My first real program was a score display for a game of darts, seems silly now

How long have you had DB/DBPro:
I've had DBPro for about 4 months (still learning).

Any other info:
I have this bad habbit of programming off the top of my head, without any planning and with very few (if any) remarks in my code, that's something I'm going to have to change with DBPro, or I will go gaga. That's probably why I've never tried to created anything big, but now that DBPro has turned up....hmmm....I wonder!

Programming anything is an art, and you can't rush art.
Unless your name is Bob Ross, then you can do it in thirty minutes.

How long have you been programming: 5/6 years
How long you have used DB/DBP: 3/4 years

I dont know for sure the above info, thats why i put 2 different years for the answers
The first thing i programmed in was c/c++, then i got db and became addicted, like everyone else around here. Ive probably had more than 10 software companies in my life, lol

Other Info:
(^_^) i like Skittles... especially the Purple one

i've been programming since '89, but i do remember tinkering with my Acorn Electron since mid 80's - but i was kinda too young to understand it properly, only ever made basic things like simple text programs and moveing monsters hehee
wasn't until '89 when i got an Amiga 500+ with Amos that i began to really get into programming
