I would be surprised that someone like Tim ( who seems to have done a fair bit of php with db stuff) would not make use of such a feature. If you can point out an example of where they are not using this feature I will gladly stand corrected. -------------------------------------------------------------------- | Joseph Scott The Office Of Water Programs | | [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] | --------------------------------------------------------------------
