I didn't realise any of the front-end tools had got beyond 4.12 yet, apart from ESQL/C which is at 5.0x. The rule is: old tools work with new engines, but not vice-versa (or at least Tech Support wouldn't be too sympathetic if you tried it). Subject to this, if you set up a true I-Star - based distributed environment you shouldn't have any trouble accessing the various servers simultaneously. akent@cix.compulink.co.uk (Andy Kent) ------------------------------------- 44 272 742815
