You will need to use an external python method. I am currently writing one that will take any sql query and a file name as its parameters and put the results of the query into the file as comma or tab delimited records with or without the the field names in the first record. Will post info here when I have it completed __________________________________________________________________ Jim Sanford .

I am having two problems. First the data is coming up in the browser and I want them to download it without having to right click and select download. Second, before the SQL is completed the browser times out. I think if I solve the first problem, the second will be Ok, Any ideas?
