Hi everyone This is what I want to do: I have a file on each workstation that gets created each time the pc is rebooted - the file save the pc configuration plus the current user logged onto the machine, I want to read from that file variables so that I can save it to my mySQL database and run queries on the data. - I have no problem reading from a file if it is on the web server, but am experiencing problems reading from the file on the remote client pc. - any suggestions? This is what I can do: Read from file on web server, set it to variables and write it to a mySQL database. -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
