Hi Nigel,

Thanks for your quick answer.
This problem is driving me a bit mad!

>The how depends
>on your server setup and what you have available to work with.
It's a Mac server. The databases are served by Filemaker Pro 4.1.
When a user enters the website a new record is made in the database. The
value of this record ID is the identification for the customers orders;
this value has to be passed throughout the whole site.
What I want is that a script pulls the recordID out of the database and
that flash grabs this recordID value.

Maybe you have another suggestion (not with PHP3)??
