yes i have tried one at a time - and there are over 120,000 records within this recordset alone - this is a mls/idx database all the home listings for san antonio tx and surrounding areas. I will zip up and send over, but one question does it matter that the data is being pulled from a sql server off site - in other words from a different ip than where the site is located. site is hosted on servers on the east coast and my sql server is located in san antonio, tx. I have come across this instance before = nevertheless at a different site right now and will zip up and send over when get home. = thanks
