Erm... There probably is, but it would probably be quite time-consuming.

couldn't find much info from that link but if someone could tell me how to go about it ....

greatly appreciated

thankx

Since I haven't really studied how Perl and SQL go along, I'd have a look at some sample Perl scripts, make my own library to use with UBB that could connect to the database, and finally a sub routine to retrieve and post the record from the database.

A good resource for Perl programming is at The CGI Resource Index .

Maybe that'll point you in the right direction.
