[Rocky Smolin]

Well, don't do that Paul.  That was one of my options.  It's a fun piece of code to write. But I may not need it that badly.  Gonna talk to the client tomorrow before I go any further (on my dime).

I could probably get you some code tomorrow, I would go about it using the tabledef object to loop through the tables, then inside every loop, loop through the fields of that tabledef object writing each out to an excel file
