I'm not sure what you mean, do you mean let each users mark messages as read or not read? Well, if you don't mind the space in a mySQL database you could create a read_bool BIT in the table and for each user reference it. Of course, if you don't expire forum entries or index the tables you will be looking at serious performance issues. -Dan
