Thank You. You have unwittingly helped resolve a taxing problem of why I could not even connect to my legacy Interdev apps, NIS being the cause.
I do agree though that having to disable NIS to do any work does suck. I am sorry I cannot provide any insight to this, maybe in the last few weeks...
Not so much solved, as I could easily have put it there initially, but it has helped me to understand that putting it in the back-end in Access, whilst potentially more elegant, was not a goer.
Thanks again for your help.
Just a thought, have you checked the open ports through your internal firewall into the DMZ?
I am no expert with VI used in this way but do a lot of work with database conns etc. into a DMZ and this is easily the most common cause of problems.
You are quite right that is a solution but it can be quite clunky if there is a large recordset to parse. I think I accept that I am dreaming a dream too far for dear old Access!
Thanks for your help.
