RE: [RE: [database update?]]
Peter, If these guys give you an update once a week they can wait 15 more minutes for the information to be available! Tell them the facts of life. Sometimes users have to be told NO! If they need faster updates let them ODBC into your database more frequently and directly update your tables. 15 minutes is nothing in the grand scheme of things.

Essentially they throw a whole new DB at me once a week and ask that the new info be presented immediately. Currently it takes about 15 mins for the new info to appear.

Re: [RE: [database update?]]
Peter, One way to do it would be to create an ODBC connection to a blank database. Then go into that db and link the tables to the database that's being uploaded. Go under FILE - GET EXTERNAL DATA - LINK TABLES. Then choose the uploaded database, and select all the relevant tables. Then when the database needs updating you don't have to worry about breaking the odbc connection etc, just replace the database. hth, larry -- Larry C.
