Thanks for the response. I'm working with Win 2K machines, and I'll look
for the file.
The other part of that question, is what is the correct way to 'distribute'
the odbc drivers for MS SQL Server?
I have several MFC books that talk about how to use CRecordset, and so that
became the way I decided to go. Since my app is relativly simple on the
database end of things, the MFC classes seemed to do everything I needed,
just lookup and display.
