Hi Rand, If you use the RevDatabase functions, you needn't worry about the externals ; it has all the required libraries and handles that for you. If you prefer to make direct calls, I'd suggest you try and hook up with a fellow VXCMD user via the Valentina user mailing list. I'm sure there are a few MetaCard-users out there who have gone through the trial-and-error fase ;-) Hope this helped, Jan Schenkel. ===== "As we grow older, we grow both wiser and more foolish at the same time."
