    I found 775 in 5 seconds flat, here:

    Now why can't you do that...?

        Seeking, grasshopper, is the first step to enlightenment.

        Perhaps there's been a sudden surge in demand...?

            That jobserve search includes any ads that just have "reports" in the description.

            I reckon there's about 50.

            You're doomed.

            Unless you look outside Jobserve.

            Oh no, that's what you asked for in the first place isn't it?

              OK, so who changed the default boolean connector on Jobserve? It used to be AND and now it seems to be OR. Seach for Contract, 7 days, and "Crystal AND Reports" and you get 98 matches. Knock out the AND and you get 1058...

              Still a crap product though - much prefer a DBA that writes what I want in five seconds flat into a CSV and use Excel to do the pretty presentation stuff.

                  Erm jobswerve did, due to competition - they display anything you typed in, in the vain hope you might work in London for 30 quid a day with 200 years experience.

                  HINT: The people who search jobswerve are not neccessarily from western europe......

                    I'm a SQL Server DBA - I used to use XMLsupport in IIS to produce reports and then educate people how to grab that data useg excel. Saved me time, only had to set up the report once then they could refresh the data as many times as they liked.

                    I still can't get my first f****** contract though
