Actually, the latest trend in online banking is that the client no longer connects to the bank. Instead, you chose to have the bank package the data into a file that can then be imported into your program. I won't try to be an armchair lawyer commenting about the legality of reverse engineering the file structure. But if you wanted this type of thing, that seems like the way to go. In fact, it might be interesting if you could work with the files from say Quicken. ======= Kirk Wood Cpt.Kirk at 1tree.net "When I take action, I'm not going to fire a $2 million missle at a $10 empty tent and hit a camel in the butt.
