No I have not used the unicode drivers, so would not suffer form the problems you specify. I have setup using that driver a couple of times, and things just didn't work properly.

CF5 doesn't. Are you using the "MS Access with Unicode Support" drivers? Or are you using the "MS Access" drivers? If you are using the latter, you are making a bridge to ODBC from JDBC and back again. Very much more overhead and, as per MM best practice, ODBC bridges should not be used in a production environment on CF6+ due to the overhead it introduces. The 'unicode support' drivers, on the other hand, are native. Wouldn't surprise me to learn that they leave behind the memory leaks that Access ODBC gifted to the world. The difference between the two drivers may wind up being only that one works right under load and the other doesn't. However I have seen one instance where searches didn't return the same results and the customer had to fall back to ODBC and suffer. -- --mattRobertson-- Janitor, MSB Web Systems mysecretbase.com ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Logware (www.logware.us): a new and convenient web-based time tracking application.
