Stuart, I hear you. Unfortunately this is my first pass at all of this stuff. I do know how to create SPs though I have never returned a data set, only individual values. Passthrough queries? Uhh... But for two of these clients I am developing in 2003 so I should be able to do most of this stuff once I learn how. The third is firmly stuck in 2000. It did not correctly handle updatable ado - bound forms etc. That is going to be tougher. The only saving grace there is that the app all runs over an internal lan, and in that case I am only going for a single table initially - the original threads about this stuff. John W.
