If you're storing data, try to use a database, as you can do a lot more with a DB than you can with flat text files on the server, and it's much faster. However, if you're stuck with text files, then look at things like fopen, fwrite and file_get_contents functions, as these should help a lot. -- Thanks, Ash http://www.ashleysheridan.co.uk
