Thanx.....writesearch and readsearch work for me.
Isn't there a way to acess the fields of a query directly, as it would save
me lots of parsing and string-formatting work?

P.S.
one problem with my old sources is, that they are all stacked up in a
freeVCS-Database which is backed up and needs to be restored, so I would
like to avoid it :-)

What does the CTL stand for? It seems to be fix for any query in every
application. Perhaps Jason would like to explain....
