Setting my server up to use DBMS support was on my list of things that I'd like to do but haven't had the time yet and probably wouldn't have come up had I not been asked about using it with an Access database. I plan on using SQL server when I start working with it in a week or two. Thanks again. C.

That's about the answer I expected. I would emphasize that the deficiencies heres are all in MS Access which is not and was never designed to be a full-fledged DBMS with record locking, etc. which is what LISTSERV needs to function effectively. LISTSERV works wonderfully with SQL Server, Oracle, DB2, Sybase and etc. all of which are full scale DBMS systems.
