This way your customers could use Access as the front-end, while MySQL is the back-end where the data is stored. For that you just have to download the Myodbc driver, create dsn connection in every PC that would be connected to the database server, create a blank database in Access and link the tables in the server to the new Access database. from this point on, it is just like working in Access. For a detailed guide, check this out: http://www.devshed.com/Server_Side/MySQL/ODBC/page1.html Good luck, LUIS [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- GMX - Die Kommunikationsplattform im Internet. http://www.gmx.net --------------------------------------------------------------------- Before posting, please check: http://www.mysql.com/manual.php (the manual) http://lists.mysql.com/ (the list archive) To request this thread, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To unsubscribe, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Trouble unsubscribing?
