Does the filemaker server proiduct make it that much faster? What kind of speed increase can I expect to see for our staff accessing the database from their client machines? Also having trouble with the telnet scripting, the 265 character limit is a pain. Would adding a Mac to telnet overcome the 256 character barrier. We have an old Mac 6120 power pc. Will it work OK or will the speeds be dreadfully slow? Thanks Chris -- Nu-World Communications "The Fast and Friendly Internet People" 44 W.
