Hi Roz: You may have to try a full web type service. A local intranet solution will be plenty fast and reliable. ColdFusion, from macromedia is a great product for this type of environment as it uses a number of data storage methods to improve performance.... the more RAM the better, on the server. A couple of GBs and you can easily service 50 active connection. The product fully integrates with the rest of the Macromedia suite; Dreamweaver MX.

Loss of support for hyperlinks is causing users a good deal of distress - we store a lot of links to useful resources and also track pages on our intranet using a database. I can't find anything on MSDN offering any workarounds for this. Can anybody help? Should I just go back to storing everything in Access & SQL Server be d at mned?? TIA Roz PS we are using SQL 7, I gather that SQL 2000 doesn't support hyperlinks either but we would go over to it if it did. :( _______________________________________________ AccessD mailing list AccessD at databaseadvisors.com http://databaseadvisors.com/mailman/listinfo/accessd Website: http://www.databaseadvisors.com
