Rick and L.J. Thanks for the help. It's not a critical thing, more of a "it'd be nice to do." but I think I'll try later tonight to convert it to a SQL DB, and then using a view form. My only question would be. if I needed to convert data back to access, could I just export in .csv format and then import it?

You could also import it into an existing DB table, but I'd be VERY careful about doing so into an existing Remedy form. If you create a new form in Remedy with the proper fields, and then import the data, as L.J. said, that will keep Remedy's metatables much happier. As usual, there are multiple ways to skin this cat, and you have to decide which one works best for you.

The access DB is located physically on the same system as Remedy's DB. Just looking for ways to do this without having to re-create the whole thing in Remedy. Help is appreciated! :-) Thanks! v/r __20060125_______________________This posting was submitted with HTML in it___ __20060125_______________________This posting was submitted with HTML in it___ __20060125_______________________This posting was submitted with HTML in it___ _______________________________________________________________________________ UNSUBSCRIBE or access ARSlist Archives at www.arslist.org ARSlist:"Where the Answers Are"
