Basically, using portions of the data stored in the mysql file, I build a URL for each query in order to download/display the image. It works great and that's how I would prefer to keep it! Unfortunately, there are some concerns about end user's having slow connections, the possibilites of server down time, so on and so forth that we hope to avoid, so everything really needs to be stored on the user's hard drive. The mysql version is the *easily* the most functional app I've ever put together. My co-workers and I hammer on it all day long with virtually no problems and updates are a breeze. It truly breaks my heart to have to go any other direction... :( -Doc- _______________________________________________ use-revolution mailing list use-revolution@lists.runrev.com http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
