Hi Orv..!

Thanks so much for the info - it really helps (also got the attachment you sent via e-mail - thanks! [img]smile.gif[/img]

Now - in looking at the base of information and a database, it really appears similiar to another system I already have programmed - that does database look-ups on Porsche Part numbers. You can seach by number, partial numbers, description, etc. To see what I mean - try this link - and imagine that rather then entering car part numbers, you were looking for a serial number in a block, or "Commercial" as part of the description, etc. OK - here is the link:

Parts Look up database

In there - I run an ACCESS database front-end with System DSN calls to SQL Server on a system behind my firewalls. It also is pretty quick, given that I think there are about 50,000 - 60,000 parts in the database...

Now, while I'm still not commiting to do this(!!!) - it could be that my existing technology could address some of the more immediate questions. As well - I may have an idea - that "could" work, to limit access to *only* those registered to POST (not just browse) these Forums - so it wouldn't be "open" to any "public" passer bys...???

Interesting concept...! Thanks again Orv..!!
