I have this stuff... http://sourceforge.net/projects/directsql I had to make only a very small change in their demok, Char() typecast in one .pas file, globally, and presto... As this is a native .pas type of interface to MySQL I feel comfortable helping fix it no problemo, going forward. FYI - Someone had bitched about this earlier. If you can't figure it out in 10 minutes with this then "you're not worthy" ;)- I'll take a few questions if the guys at the project above are too busy. They have no listserv... it seems... still tinkering around. -AEF -- "When I took off my space suit helmet, I let out a sigh.
