Need a mentor for V4REV...

[Jim Carwardine]

Hi Folks... I originally called this email " Self-Teaching V4REV Sucks", but
then backed off because I want to like and use Valentina but...

We are not finding the wiki and other docs as helpful as we expected it to
be...

1. There seems to be a number of approaches in how one would design a
Valentina database - SQL-like???? or using the kernel???? - which we don't
understand and which isn't explained in any straightforward way...  How do
we decide which way to go?

2. We've now mastered a simple update and retrieve scenario with V4REV and
now can't make sense of the docs for searching.  Does anyone have a sample
of Rev code that executes a search that we can study?

3. Would someone please explain to me why there are so many releases of
V4REV?  It seems as though every week there is a new version.  I had so much
trouble installing V4REV the first time, I hate the idea of re-installing a
new version every week...

I would like to spend an hour or so on the phone with somebody who can help
us make sense of V4REV before I dump it all an go to a database that has
some books to reference.

Is there anyone out there that can help?

BTW we are using a MacBook w/ Intel and OS 10.4.10, Rev 2.8.1 and V4REV 3.3
for development

Thanks in advance... I don't mean to sound negative but I am truly
frustrated... Jim
