Heh... thanks for the plug Matt... :) Yea, it's probably more than you need, but there's an article on the CFDJ site called "Leveraging JDBC or Just Fetching Coffee" which goes over the details of how to get data type information for your columns. Of course, it's all built into the framework (which is open-source, so you can rip to your hearts content if you like), though given your descrption is does rather sound like hunting deer with a howitzer. :) s. isaac dealey 954.522.6080 new epoch : isn't it time for a change? add features without fixtures with the onTap open source framework http://macromedia.breezecentral.com/p49777853/ http://www.sys-con.com/author/?id=4806 http://www.fusiontap.com ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Logware (www.logware.us): a new and convenient web-based time tracking application.
