Hector, thanks for your reply.

I have actaully received the SQL data in Excel format for some reason, but I will request a re-send of the ACTUAL SQL data.

Is there any problems in sending SQL as an intact Database from one location to another and then running up an app at the other site.

What are the extensions in SQL (Are they like .DBC , .DBF or is everyting in one access type file like a .MDB ?

Regards,

Gerard
