	khoff  +  81799 Thu, 17 Mar 05 05:14 AM Using "I" in this sentence is not correct, though it would be a pretty common mistake. THe easiest way to tell what it should be is put yourself and Bill into separate sentences: A good time was had by all. A good time was had by Bill. A good time was had by I --?? Nope - A good time was had by me. Therefore, a good time was had by Bill and me. Or, in this case, a good time was had by all - especially Bill and me. If you rephrase the sentence in the active voice it's the other way - Bill had a good time. I had a good time. (Not "me had a good time") Therefore, Bill and I had a good time. khoff Joined on Sun, Mar 6 2005 Senior Member 3,216 Native speaker of American English (but not a grammar expert)
