John: I'm also using Access (95). I could give a hand, but still don't have much experience. At least I can deal with some of the MS ODBC driver's most cryptic error messages. > No real choice here... Must use MS Access... (well, come to think of it, I > could export the data into MySQL databases and go from there... hmmm) Of course, you would be BETTER off if you do so. I've also done it: it's very easy to attach MySQL tables to Access (using MyODBC) and exporting info. But, if you're planning on using MySQL tables attached via-ODBC to Access aplications, you would be doing just about one of the worst combinations in the market: you can hardly find anything slower (short of looking up data on a card file ;-)). If you do switch to MySQL you would certainly want to try something like phpMyAdmin (excellent tool). Gonzalo.
