We found that using Excel was a fairly good test of ODBC from Office, and the other good test is to fire up a demo copy of Crystal Reports and see if that can produce a simple report. If both of these work you are catering for 80% or more if the uses that people have for ODBC 8-) Cheers, Max. _______________________________________________ Delphi mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://ns3.123.co.nz/mailman/listinfo/delphi
