hi everyone.

it is possible to retrieve data from webviewer?

i would like to do next:

1. user type in id field number 6

2. we use user number and go to site whatever?id=6

3. we show result in webviewer .. this can be name "john"

4. we use name "john" in another script

or can i retrieve data in some other way over the internet? without odbc.

tnx in advance!

tnx, it works! is there a way to not use a webviewer? i just need to retrieve data and not webviewer in layout.

Hi Sebastijan,

I just reread your Original Post, after reading this reply.

Is this data you are wanting to access on a Web Page, or on your computer?

is this possible?
