Nigel,

Your idea of easy and mine are probably worlds apart but I value any
help forthcoming.

What I have is a constantly updated database in Excel (could be Access
if necessary) with jobs on it for an employment agency. What I want is
to post this info to a page, hopefully on the fly but updated once a day
if easier, so that the agency can just update the data and upload the
file as and when wanted.

As to servers and cgi's I really don't know. If there is any info you
can point me to I'll happily read and respond then.

Klyve

Klyve,

This is quite easy to implement. The basic process is to have a cgi do
the query on the database and return the results via GET or POST or even
write out a ASCII result file. I'm preparing a tutorial on this, if you
want your particular setting covered please be more specific as to what
database and cgi support you are thinking of. Currently I'm basing the
tutorial on the following settings Apache server, ODBC or MySQL dbases,
Perl or PHP3 CGI's. I can add a few other settings if there is interest.
