The solution you suggest needs a separate machine to act as a server. The situation I am in is standalone PCs with no connection/network among them every one of them having a standalone indexing/query system, acting independently. Most of them have Win 98/Me OS. So I think there is no solution through ASP. If anyone has another list address to get advice would be welcome...
