Sure, blame it on MS SQLServer. I hate to break it to you but SI's glory days, were on NT and SQL Server. That's what was used in Kansas and before. The technology they are moving towards (checkout what go2net uses) is fine. Please refrain from introducing OS and DB religious wars into the equation. One foot in both worlds seems to be a problem. How can you dislike MS and love old SI when old SI grew up on NT and SQL Server. Food for thought. When SI (now called Classic) was converted to run on Apache web servers running on Linix it seemed to run great (db was still MS SQL Server). The question is what's it moving to? Is what it's moving to bad or is it being between two worlds that is causing problems? Regards Tom
