One reason you might be having difficulty is if the remote host does the basic authentication procedure of checking that the username/password is being submitted from a specific host or script (in which case it will see that you're attempting to submit the information from somewhere else and won't allow it). Have you verified with the owners of the remote application that what you are trying to do is not prevented? -mo > I am afraid I am not communicating what I am trying to do. > > I have multiple databases that my library purchases.
