Do you use osmosis? Is there a chant you perform? : : You don't get around much do you? : You didn't answer the question Anthony. How can you tell exactly how a program operates on a database without reading the source? EXACTLY - OPERATES ON DATABASE - ANSWER To answer your question, irrelevant as it is, yes, I do. I've got a Platnum Premier card from United to prove some of my travels and 22K miles on my year-old motorcycle to prove some of my travels. What does that have to do with databases? Wait, don't answer that. I already asked you a toughie. You'll need to put all of your energy into answering that one. gburnore@netcom dot com or gburnore@netcom databasix com --------------------------------------------------------------------------- How you look depends on where you go. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Gary L.
