All those nice forms I put together for my library project? I've deleted every last one of them.

I realized last night that the underlying tables weren't organized as well as they could be. Some of the fields became redundant when I reorganized the keywords set-up; the volumes-works linkage could be altered to fix a problem that had been niggling at me; and a couple of other things could be polished. So I went in, dumped one table entirely, expanded another, and added yet another. Then (feeling like Sten Duncan in Shon'jir) I deleted all of the forms and all of the macros that went with them. I'll rebuild them over the next week, better and cleaner.

Is this what they call "creative destruction"? Whatever; it leaves me feeling a bit like a mad scientist, mua-ha-ha-ing and rubbing his hands....
