No, I did NOT want to bring the entire datbase into a browse, but I did NOT want to have to open and close the database evertime I want to move to a new record (which I what I am doing now).

I just want to be able to open the SQL database (view) and then be able to move the record pointer as I need. As it is now, when I try to OPEN the sql database, it tries to bring ALL records to the work station.

I do appreciate any suggestions!!!!!!

THANKS
