Bill Slaughter	When opening any table via ODBC we get the 07009 - Invalid Descriptor error message. What or where should we look to correct this problem? Thanks, Bill

Once it was changed to be Forward Only the error was eliminated. www.elevatesoft.com Tim, We are using "ODBC Express" in a generic application to query various ODBC data sources. Thanks, Bill

If you want to send me a sample of what you're trying, along with the version of ODBCExpress that you're using, I'll check it out and find out what the situation is. -- Tim Young Elevate Software www.elevatesoft.com
