Do you have an example of the code?  This is a simple statement to connect to 
another RBase database.  

SCONNECT ';driver=Oterro X Enterprise Database Driver (*.RX1);dbq=x:\freight'

The last example I had of an Acce$$ command was this, but it's old:

SCONNECT';driver=Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb);dbq=T:\consult.mdb'

And yeah, just create variables and concatenate into the sconnect string and 
then do an  &vCommand to run the statement.

Thank you, Razzak, and others that responded. I will pursue the DSN-less route.

I have used this technique when havingto connect to mulitple Acce$$ databases.  
It was neat bit of code.

I'm thinking the DSN-less method lendsitself to creating a command file that 
uses passed parameters.

I'm going to go have some fun.  Mightlose a sock or two in the process  :-)

Have a wonderful afternoon everyone!

Mike,

Did you know that you can achieve your goal by using the DSN-Less 
connection(s)?

For complete details and examples, take a close look at the technical 
articles on From The Edge ...

Have fun!

Very Best R:egards,
