Jim, How about move the Access DB to Adabas. The users could access the database from the web using your access forms already developed. This mean users accessing your web site would need your access forms on their system. (The users first act could be to download the forms). Adabas is not free!!! But there again very few first class products are. The folks at SuSE in California can set you up. As far as tcl goes, it's a tool worth learning. As is Perl. Perl has a tcl extensions modules called Perl/Tk. I think the guys at Qddb are working towards getting a Perl/Tk version out. One of the benefits of Perl/Tk is that your apps are cross platform (windozs and Unix, one day the Mac).
