As a novice/intermediate FB programmer I'd also like to have others
critique my code and would like to help where I can. I often get the
feeling when I've finally solved some problem that, while it works, there
is probably a better or more elegant or efficient solution. Because I only
seem able to learn things by doing, I have a very patchy grasp of FB. ie
I'm fairly familiar with copybits etc. but I haven't got the hang of
records. Or paramblocks. etc. So I'd like to be involved in general
discussion of beginners problems that might not be suitable for this group.

cheers, Paul
