    3D Letters

    Yep - CS has implemented Dimensions into Illustrtor. It's quite nice too. I do remember Kai's Vector Tools for OS9. It was a nice set of tools. Poor Kai has been so fragmented since the days of KPT.

    adobe streamline

    I really liked Streamline a lot. I was in the silk screen industry and it was a godsend. If you have a good B/W source, scan it in at high-res, I am talking 1200dpi. Adjust your settings, and I always got very good results. Depending on what you were doing, there was little edting. Color images...

    Sorting by date before group by

    I probably explained it wrong womewhere. Take a look at this site http://www.grindhousedesign.com You'll see int he center of the page are 5 catagories: Clubs, Bars.... Each one has an article related to them. The articles listed there are the first ones posted under that catagory. I need to...

    Sorting by date before group by

    Yes, but I'm looking to get it sorted by date. Not a count. It's being used to retreive the latest article in each of 5 areas. So I do a simple JOIN, but GROUP BY areas This groups it propery, but returns only the first record in each group. ORDER BY will only sort on the found set.

    Sorting by date before group by

    Yes, all it will do is order the grouped set. Which are still the earlier records in the table. Thanks Rich

    Creating a Table in Illustrator

    While you cannot create an actual data table with cels, you can use the grid tool to simulate one. If you have InDesign, it has a table tool that is awesome. Rich

    Sorting by date before group by

    I am trying to sort my records by date, with the most current date first, then group it by a criteria. Problem I am having is I can group by [column] but it will only show the first records of each group which are the earlier dated records. SELECT areas.id AS arid, area, articles.id AS aid...

    painting problems

    Ahmut, Illustrator does not have painting capabilities. Do you mean painting by using graidients or gradient mesh? The brush tools in Illustrator are special path tools. Please elaborate on your question. Rich

    Offending Operator errors

    I have had similar issues you are posting. In my situation, it would be newly created art and it would happen to a handful of them at the same time. Trying to open a file would result in the error you posted (each file had a different offending command), the file would open but with no artwork...

    table craziness

    Both reposnses are correct. The tables do add a paragragh after each and the tables are sent to a new page since it fills the entire page. Oddly deleteing the paragraph deletes the second table. Yet another wonderful display of complete control over this program. The macro returned an error...

    table craziness

    Hmmm. I am doing wha both of you reccomend but it does not seem to be doing anything. Should I mention I am using a Mac, but trying both command and control keys seems to produce no results. What I did do was split the table which gave me the 2 rows on serperate pages. But..it created a new...

    Complex Path warning question?

    I am pretty sure this is referring to memory. if Illustrator does not have enough memory to render your art, it will change to Preview Mode. In the same situration, if your printer does not have enough memory it may fail to print. Basically your final art just may be too complex for the above...
