Poll. Monitor the modification time on the database file and when it changes, update your display. You can poll the modification time of a file 10 times per second with no measurable CPU overhead. If you need to know specifically what changed, create triggers that write a change log into a special table. -- D. Richard Hipp <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
