Nancy,

>Please don't misunderstand me. You may well want to use webservices. It's a technique...an implementation. Do read Strah's papers on webservices. Basically you would create classes that do what you need to get from your data and then compile them as objects that can be accessed from the Web. It's not really as mystical as it might seem. But you're still left with the problem of getting at the Webservice. The asp side is fine on the hosted server. That's not the problem.

I'm trying to do a quick test between my desktop and laptop with my system but have to bail on you for now to get some client work finished. Sorry! I'll try to get back to it shortly. I'll keep on the thread, too.

I appreciate all your help. I am sure you have work and clients and deadlines. And knowing how it is in this business, Friday is not an excuse not to finish the job (unless you work for a large company <g>).

Again. Thank you so much.
