Hi Les,
Thanks but I'm not sure this is an answer to my dilema. Not sure how to put
this as it isn't to clear to myself. Yes it does use a SQL service but it is
not actually a SQL database file. huh???? Don't ask me to explain as when
they tried it to me I could say was huh!!!! No offense but I do need to do
it the way I explained and am still looking for an example of the command
line I need in my bat file. thanks for the attempt but I am not looking for
an alternative.
