Hi Russ!

     Well, except for one little detail I have that script working with a mysql
database;  it had been working with a postgresql database, but it seemed to 
take a bit more to get it working that just working on the differences in 
syntax etc between the two...

     And that "one little detail" is how to handle apostrophes;   thought I had
it working by simply deleteing them (the entries weren't quite as readable, but 
the all went in to the database...<g>), but it doesn't seem to be doing so now.

     I'll just keep plugging away at it...
