Hi Ken
Thanks for the reply. The database that I'm trying to import to was formed automatically when I used the web servers installation package. I did not "consciously" add anything to it. Having said that I have just taken a look at it using the cpanel MyPHPAdmin and it is fully populated with tables. Should I delete all the tables and then try the inport again?
My knowledge level in these things is just hi enough to be dangerous to myself the s/w always seems to win
Really appreciate your input
