[Q] Ideas on how to do this....

G'Day All, My environment is as follows: - MS-SQL 2k on Win32 box - PHP 4.xx, TDS x.xx on Linux box I have a need to call a stored procedure that would execute a DOS application that writes status messages to standard out while it does some work. Ideally I would like to display that stdout information back via PHP as they occur so that the user would see: Line 1 of StdOut Line 2 of StdOut Line 3 of StdOut Line 4 of StdOut As it was generated by the DOS executable. Can someone put me on the road to doing this please? -- Donovan ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Donovan J.
