The ONLY way to connect is to a database, you can not connect to the server without using a database in the connection string. Each database is it's own file or set of files if spread across multiple disks. There is no way of asking a server what databases are available, you have to know beforehand. Although some newcomers call it a bug it's an original design feature. I'll add BOOLEAN to https://phpsurgery.org/tests/ibtest.php tomorrow, but there are bugs in your link that don't show in the link I have been using :( But some of them are not bugs ... -- Lester Caine - G8HFL ----------------------------- Contact - https://lsces.co.uk/wiki/?page=contact L.S.Caine Electronic Services - https://lsces.co.uk EnquirySolve - https://enquirysolve.com/ Model Engineers Digital Workshop - https://medw.co.uk Rainbow Digital Media - https://rainbowdigitalmedia.co.uk
