Thank you, Sanford.

If I convert to an external database -- say, SQL 2000 -- will the list data be
stored in the database or remain in the registry?

Is there a document available that describes all of the database tables and
fields created upon converting to an external database?  I could not find one.

Again, thank you all for the input.
