Thanks. It won't matter then that I'm on win98 box and the server is
NT2000?

It's Access, my guess is that as long as I can see the .mdb files I'm
good to go. There are guys out there that are crazy about Access! Maybe
they are just crazy...

I'm assuming there is an ADO driver installed and I would think there
may be an ODBC as well. If not I can snag the ADO driver from
xmlproj.com
What advantages does the ODBC have over the ADO, aside from Jeff Urlwin

Cheers,
