I think it probably better to switch to IE then. I think I can figure out OLEDB once I have an idea about the concept OLE. I've surfed the net for information about OLE, and I think I understand the basic idea.

for instance: I understand that OLE uses object from other programs. An example is the spelling checker (= Object) in word is used in Outlook so that they don't have to write it all over again?

What I don't understand is: how do you know what objects are available, and how do you access them?

In my simple mind I kind of see them as calling sub-scripts (to stay in Kix terms) with some parameters. Or is this completely wrong?

I'm humbly awaiting your wise lessons.

Word to Ruud v. Velsen: is it an idea to include a little OLE explanation in the next user manual, or is OLE too complex for that?
