Sounds like the biggest release since 7.0 to me, and all good stuff. I do have a nagging concern with the Windows support though. I'm guessing most people running Windows servers will either be running php on top, or have windows clients. AFAIK this means .NET or ODBC, and for older Access-based systems upgrading definitely ODBC. Dave Page has bravely stepped into the breach to maintain the ODBC driver, but the niggles in it will generate a flood of support messages as Windows users test it out. Basically, I'm asking what would need to be done technically for the ODBC driver, and is there anything a non-hacker can do to help? -- Richard Huxton Archonet Ltd ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 1: subscribe and unsubscribe commands go to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
