Thats exactly what I did. the catch is that I have a perpetual connection
to the database. that's a problem.

oh well. I've fixed it already, i was just wondering if there was any way
to circumvent...

in answer to the other question, switching to another dbase is not an
option at this point in the dev process (more than a handful of years
investment).

thanks for the prompt answers guys :)
