Thanks for the replies I did download PostgreSql last night and I've got MySQL on a CD ROM. I'll take the advice and just use Access only while I'm learning

One that doesn't get any traffic, or that you don't mind if it's off the air due to the server locking up.

Try and find a host that will back end onto a free database like MySQL (if you must) or PostgreSQL if possible. <insert reference to archived database rants here> Cheers Paul Haddon Technical Services Manager Formstar Print Technologies --- You are currently subscribed to cfaussie as: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] MX Downunder AsiaPac DevCon - http://mxdu.com/ ----- Sent using MailStart.com ( http://MailStart.Com/welcome.html ) The FREE way to access your mailbox via any web browser, anywhere! --- You are currently subscribed to cfaussie as: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] MX Downunder AsiaPac DevCon - http://mxdu.com/
