I've read the manual but it doesn't explain it very clearly. Any suggestions or answers Thanks, Peter Hi Peter, I think the Webdatablade was not secure enough coz the apb2 page is accessible when an internet user view the source code and open a new location base on the action (i.e. action=???) found in the document's form. If you really wanna try, go to informix and ... boom you can XXX the page. I'ld like to suggest you to change the ID=apb2 to any name that you like (e.g.ID=sE8k74z-blah), and all IDs that start with the apb2_????. Another way to prevent any changes to your pages is to install the illustra in a diff dir and dump your current dbase in, next delete all IDs start with apb2.'To make any changes you can copy/micopy tables or update a particular field. syay syay@spyder.net.my
