I've thought about using the mssql_* functions. My boss originally pushed me into odbc posing the question "What if we move to a different database server type?". I do have a class for handling all the database functions. Maybe I'll just go that route. If he changed to Oracle or something, I could modify my class easy enough. I'm assuming mssql_num_rows() works fine when calling a stored procedure? -- -Dan Joseph www.canishosting.com - Plans start @ $1.99/month.
