ROCK & ROLL!!!!!!Cool....even simpler to do than I thought. I was trying to make it really hard to do. Thanks!I didn't even know there was a Formulas.db file or how to use the more advanced features of WebDNA. Do you have any docs on this yet (even beta docs would help)? I know it's probably in the downloaded files I have but if you could push me in the right direction...--BenWebWright, Inc. Make a Presence.
