Hello Dane, Many thanks for your investigations. I’m very busy at the moment, so hope to play once everything has stopped for Christmas. From what I saw iDatabase is a very slim flat database i.e. not a relational database. Which probably mean I’ll need to use a open source back end and write php interface. If I want to use relational features.
Thanks.
