Excel can import, but read only access may not suffice. They could get read-write access by simply accessing the database directly via a web browser. But I don't think it is really an access issue. Based on previous incidents I think that access is not the point. Some people seek personal validation by doing all their computing with Microfoft products. They give you this deer in the headlights look whenever a non-MS product is mentioned. ************************************************************************ * ==> QUICK LIST-COMMAND REFERENCE - Put the following commands in <== * ==> the body of an email & send 'em to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] <== * Join the list: SUBSCRIBE COMPUTERGUYS-L Your Name * Too much mail?
