Thanks Helen, I will.

But, I hate to ask.
I am having a strange occurrance that may link back
to my problem, but has to be IBO in some way:
If I place a TIB_Query in Active state during design
phase after approx 3 minutes it goes into prepared
state. Is there something behind the scenes doing this?
Or is this something to do with the connection problem?
