Hi Inspector 99

I don't rely on this history file at all as it store too much info that I don't want and i have no contrrol over how long it stores etc.

What I do - Is I use various audit files (ie tables -) that mirror any key tables that I want to keep audit info on. Then every time a user writes/update a record the the system updates (copies) certain key fields plus the user/ and record creation date/time etc. That way I can keep the audit table for as long as I want but in fact I also have a script in global scripts area that checks everytime a user logs on a deletes any records over x years for each audit table. I also set all these audit tables to invisible unless an unlock code it set in the system table.

Works for me....

Great - glad your sorted :-)
