Are you using Windows 2003? If so, have you updated SQL2000 to the very latest service pack?
To quote Microsoft, "Microsoft Windows Server™ 2003 supports only SQL Server 2000 with Service Pack 3" What they mean is that there is a bug in SQL on 2003 whereby it won't communicate across TCPIP. SP3 fixes it. You won't believe how long I messed around with firewalls before I figured that one out :) Ian ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Logware (www.logware.us): a new and convenient web-based time tracking application.
