Thanks for starting this one -hopefully everyone leaves a cooment to say exactly how many… -Im 3 1/2 years now [H]
7½ years total Nav-exp.
4½ years developing
I’ve been working with Navision for about 8 years. Have been in the Financial Systems business, as both consultant and developer, since the late 1980’s.
I think I’ve been now working on Navision for seven years… or were they eight?
About 7.5 years now
Well started working with Navision (or IBM-Navigator as it was called) version 3.04 back in january 1991. So 16 years!!
Someone out there with more than 16 years? [O]
Well I can actually add that when I was in college (learning programming and computers and that stuff) I made a large project on PCPlus - the program pre-dating Navision - most people actually call it version 1 of Navision! And that was in 1989. So you can add two more years to that, as I after the project was using this system to run the accounts of a local organization. You can read my introduction in the Introductions forum if you want to know more… [:)]
Same as Erik 3.04 and 16 years. [:D]
You should have been in Denmark last week. there we met some of the 20+ ers. But in general I think outside of Microsoft, Erik is the “oldest” Navisioner. (Not by age of course).
Well that dwarf’s my 9 years. Still pretty good for a 25 y/o 
Yep quite impressive actually, though I would imagine that some clients got a little bit nervous when the NSC sent out that 16 year old consultant to do the Navision install [:D]
I had quite a steep learning curve. I was destined for a life in the RAF. And ended up in IT. So I went from being a School kid to programming business software, having never even worked before.
no doubt my early years left a trail of destruction behind me. Well more so than now anyway 
How interesting, I came very close to joining the RAAF (us Aussies get an extra “A”) it was very much a last minute change to do Engineering instead.
Was destined to be a Pilot. My Asthma as a child No-no’d that. Was very annoyed. So here I am!
Still got 7 years part time, and an 8 month operational tour in!
My hairs too long to be in the military any more
Respect Tony…
When I was 16, I was still in high-school, and all i cared about was Parties, Parties and some more Parties.
(If no parties were held, and there were nothing on TV, and the weather was bad so we couldn’t go skating or shoot hoops, then I would do my homework…tsk,tsk)
But actually I also dreamt of being a fighter-pilot.
I even took the tests (5 days of testing) and were told that I was definately pilot-material…
They would like me to take my term though, to find out if being in the military was what i wanted, and then apply again…
After almost 2 years in the the service, I had learned that a life in the Military included a lot of inactive time, just waiting and waiting…
At 20 years life just seemed too short for all that waiting, and I never applied again…
Now I work with Navision, and I never have to wait for anything [^o)]
(renaming a company on SQL takes less than a blink of the eye, as you all know)
Hhehhh, when I was 16 yo, I was in the middle of the war [:)]. There was no food to eat, computers were imagination, (no electric power)…
