Here's my two ideas to make Mission Impossible a little more complicated: Would it be possible to make a web based database open for everyone to get information from but with different levels of write access for trustees? I have started on a database for my parts. (Who hasn't?) I got this odd idea, but yet I think it's useful: Entering stud count for every part! (I mean stud or stud2[a] types). It's not always you can determine what theme or category a part belongs to, but you can always count the studs on it and suddenly you have eliminated many hundred parts from the search. /Tore
