Hi Lynne, thanks for your help its much appreciated. I have a developer who's doing my website but he reckons its too diffuclt to do. Perhaps some background before he's judged

I have a 2007 Access dB (why is a long storey) which contains payperview records but the search credits are, which are used to PPV are handled in a MYSQL db already. So I know he's used .ASP for the site and I think its the linking between sessions (i'm a bit thick so don't quote me ) and asp/php handling. In light of the difficulties involved I've accepted that Nirvana is not where I'm going to be just yet, perhaps later when funds allow.
All the best
Carl
