Both you and Arnon are correct (as usual (s)). FYI, you might want to check out the article on C/S development in the October VFUG newsletter. Also, there are some white papers (extracts from YAG's book) and sample files at the MS site. Don't forget to update your error handler to ease along ODBC errors. You'll also want to think "parameterized views".
