Thanks for the info, Barbara.

Boy, what a difference a few days of digging in makes.... I moved everything over to Web Connection (instead of Visual WebBuilder) and spent the past few days REALLY experimenting. So far, I've been able to tie my backend data to some HTML forms, etc. I've even been able to create several buttons on one of the forms (TOP, PREV, NEXT, BOTTOM, etc) and now have it successfully "scrolling" though the table (very similar to a desktop app.)

This stuff is a blast once you commit and dive in! I can't believe how much progress I've made so far... (Reminds me of when VFP 3 was released...Playing around with the data environments, methods, etc.)

Today I finished the routine that emails the user's password to them should they forget it. (It will only email to the email address that was set up when they signed in originally.) That, so far, has actually been the easiest thing to do.

Rick has a great product and I just wish I hadn't waited so long to decide to jump in.

Well, enough rambling... I sound like a youngster that just rode his bike for the first time without training wheels!

Thanks again,
